Famous quotes containing the word people:

    Seems like everything people oughta know they just don’t want to hear. I guess that’s the big trouble with the world.
    Geoffrey Homes (1902–1977)

    God of justice, God of mercy,
    Make us merciful and just!
    Help us see all your creation
    As from you a sacred trust.
    And when people cry in anguish
    For their own or others’ pain,
    Show us ways to make a difference
    O dear God, make us humane!
    Jane Parker Huber (b. 1926)

    I could never bear to be buried with people to whom I had not been introduced.
    Norman Parkinson (1913–1990)
