Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “A seeming ignorance is very often a most necessary part of worldly knowledge. It is, for instance, commonly advisable to seem ignorant of what people offer to tell you; and, when they say, Have you not heard of such a thing? to answer, No, and to let them go on, though you know it already.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
