Famous quotes containing the word people:
“I have found out that there ain’t no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Thirty-five years ago, when I was a college student, people wrote letters. The businessman who read, the lawyer who traveled; the dressmaker in evening school, my unhappy mother, our expectant neighbor: all conducted an often large and varied correspondence. It was the accustomed way of ordinarily educated people to occupy the world beyond their own small and immediate lives.”
—Vivian Gornick (b. 1935)
“When people get old and pearls get yellow, neither are worth much.”
—Chinese proverb.
