Famous quotes containing the word people:

    Things happen to us, all the time. It was like that for a century, and it is again. It’s not like here: People always do things, because you are born with it; you are brought up in this spirit, the active approach to life: “Stand up and go.” We were not. We were always passive in our lives.
    Natasha Dudinska (b. c. 1967)
