Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “Words like “freedom,” “justice,” “democracy” are not common concepts; on the contrary, they are rare. People are not born knowing what these are. It takes enormous and, above all, individual effort to arrive at the respect for other people that these words imply.”
    —James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    “America is the civilization of people engaged in transforming themselves. In the past, the stars of the performance were the pioneer and the immigrant. Today, it is youth and the Black.”
    —Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)

    “There is no such thing as a moral dress.... It’s people who are moral or immoral.”
    —Jennie Jerome Churchill (1854–1921)
