Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it’s cracked up to be. That’s why people are so cynical about it.... It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don’t risk anything, you risk even more.”
—Erica Jong (b. 1942)
“The intellect is a very nice whirligig toy, but how people take it seriously is more than I can understand.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“Three people equal one tiger.”
—Chinese proverb.
