Famous quotes containing the words people and/or language:

    We seldom find people ungrateful so long as we are in a condition to render them service.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Nothing so fretful, so despicable as a Scribbler, see what I am, & what a parcel of Scoundrels I have brought about my ears, & what language I have been obliged to treat them with to deal with them in their own way;Mall this comes of Authorship.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
