Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Even to this day it is easier than it ought to be for me to get a rise out of an American by telling him something about himself which is equally true about every human being on the face of the globe. He at once resents this as a disparagement and an assertion on my part that people in other parts of the globe are not like that, and are loftily superior to such weaknesses.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Communists should be the first to be concerned about other people and country and the last to enjoy themselves.”
—Zhao Ziyang (b. 1919)
“Phil Green: Some people hate Catholics and some hate Jews.
Tommy: And no one hates us ‘cause we’re Americans!”
—Moss Hart (1904–1961)
