Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “Cursed be anyone who moves a neighbor’s boundary marker.” All the people shall say, “Amen!”
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 27:17.

    The secret of the demagogue is to appear as dumb as his audience so that these people can believe themselves as smart as he is.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)

    I believe a man is born first unto himself—for the happy developing of himself, while the world is a nursery, and the pretty things are to be snatched for, and pleasant things tasted; some people seem to exist thus right to the end. But most are born again on entering manhood; then they are born to humanity, to a consciousness of all the laughing, and the never-ceasing murmur of pain and sorrow that comes from the terrible multitudes of brothers.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
