Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “I can get dressed earlier in the evening with every intention of going to a dance at midnight, but somehow after the theatre the thing to do seems to be either to go to bed or sit around somewhere. It doesn’t seem possible that somewhere people can be expecting you at an hour like that.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “When people do not respect us we are sharply offended; yet deep down in his private heart no man much respects himself.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
