Famous quotes containing the word people:
“A people without history
Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
Of timeless moments.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“But then people don’t read literature in order to understand; they read it because they want to re-live the feelings and sensations which they found exciting in the past. Art can be a lot of things; but in actual practice, most of it is merely the mental equivalent of alcohol and cantharides.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“I wonder if we are all wrong about each other, if we are just composing unwritten novels about the people we meet?”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
