Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Old people love to give good advice to console themselves for no longer being able to set a bad example.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“The parents who wish to lead a quiet life I would say: Tell your children that they are very naughty—much naughtier than most children; point to the young people of some acquaintances as models of perfection, and impress your own children with a deep sense of their own inferiority. You carry so many more guns than they do that they cannot fight you. This is called moral influence and it will enable you to bounce them as much as you please.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“He took as his motto: misfortune is good for something. How many good people have been able to say: misfortune is good for nothing!”
—Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
