Famous quotes containing the words people and/or party:

    Sometimes people who are never alone are the loneliest, don’t you think so?
    —A.I. (Albert Isaac)

    ... the idea of a classless society is ... a disastrous mirage which cannot be maintained without tyranny of the few over the many. It is even more pernicious culturally than politically, not because the monolithic state forces the party line upon its intellectuals and artists, but because it has no social patterns to reflect.
    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
