Famous quotes containing the word people:
“There are people who can do all fine and heroic things but one: keep from telling their happinesses to the unhappy.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“To me, literature is a calling, even a kind of salvation. It connects me with an enterprise that is over 2,000 years old. What do we have from the past? Art and thought. That’s what lasts. That’s what continues to feed people and given them an idea of something better. A better state of one’s feelings or simply the idea of a silence in one’s self that allows one to think or to feel. Which to me is the same.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“Solitary and farouche people don’t have relationships; they are quite unrelatable. If you and I were capable of being altogether house-trained and made jolly, we should be nicer people, but not writers.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
