Famous quotes containing the word people:
“It was not exactly a hairdresser’s; that is to say, people of a coarse and vulgar turn of mind might have called it a barber’s; for they not only cut and curled ladies elegantly, and children carefully, but shaved gentlemen easily.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“The mere existence of conscience, that faculty of which people prate so much nowadays, and are so ignorantly proud, is a sign of our imperfect development. It must be merged in instinct before we become fine.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“If only people would realize that moral principles are like measles.... They have to be caught. And only the people who’ve got them can pass on the contagion.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
