Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “What do you think spies are: priests, saints and martyrs? They’re a squalid procession of vain fools, traitors too, yes; pansies, sadists and drunkards, people who play cowboys and Indians to brighten their rotten lives.”
    —John le Carré (b. 1931)

    “There was a green branch hung with many a bell
    When her own people ruled this tragic Eire;
    And from its murmuring greenness, calm of Faery,
    A Druid kindness, on all hearers fell.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Generally speaking, we would make a good bargain by renouncing all the good that people say of us, upon condition they would say no ill.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
