Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “Most people grow old within a small circle of ideas, which they have not discovered for themselves. There are perhaps less wrong-minded people than thoughtless.”
    —Luc, Marquis de Vauvenargues (1715–1747)

    “Religion is by no means a proper subject of conversation in mixed company; it should only be treated among a very few people of learning, for mutual instruction. It is too awful and respectable a subject to become a familiar one.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Even people who sleep in the same bed each dream their own dreams.”
    —Chinese proverb.
