Famous quotes containing the word people:

    The pleasures of the imagination are as it were only drawings and models which are played with by poor people who cannot afford the real thing.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    Every murder turns on a bright hot light, and a lot of people ... have to walk out of the shadows.
    Mark Hellinger (1903–1947)

    And we may be led, then, upward through more
    Powerful forms of poetry, past columns
    With peeling posters on them, to the country of indifference.
    Meanwhile if the swell diapasons, blooms
    Unhappily and too soon, the little people are nonetheless real.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
