Famous quotes containing the word people:

    Most people find just being themselves not enough of a show.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    I am convinced the most unfortunate people are those who would make an art of love. It sours other effort. Of all artists, they are certainly the most wretched.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    A society person who is enthusiastic about modern painting or Truman Capote is already half a traitor to his class. It is middle-class people who, quite mistakenly, imagine that a lively pursuit of the latest in reading and painting will advance their status in the world.
    Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
