Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and could be, if ... there weren’t any other people living in the world.”
    —Anne Frank (1929–1945)

    “The most sensible people to be met with in society are men of business and of the world, who argue from what they see and know, instead of spinning cobweb distinctions of what things ought to be.”
    —William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    “You can’t put fourteen hundred people out of work because the world has a stomach ache.”
    —Fredric M. Frank (1911–1977)
