Famous quotes containing the word people:

    It is hard to have patience with people who say “There is no death” or “Death doesn’t matter.” There is death. And whatever is matters. And whatever happens has consequences, and it and they are irrevocable and irreversible. You might as well say that birth doesn’t matter.
    —C.S. (Clive Staples)

    All people who have reached the point of becoming nations tend to despise foreigners, but there is not much doubt that the English-speaking races are the worst offenders. One can see this from the fact that as soon as they become fully aware of any foreign race they invent an insulting nickname for it.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    I’d wish the government took honest people into consideration, it shows enough consideration for scoundrels.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
