Famous quotes containing the word people:

    The Landlord is a gentleman ... who does not earn his wealth. He has a host of agents and clerks that receive for him. He does not even take the trouble to spend his wealth. He has a host of people around him to do the actual spending. He never sees it until he comes to enjoy it. His sole function, his chief pride, is the stately consumption of wealth produced by others.
    David Lloyd George (1863–1945)

    ...the people were spellbound by what they heard.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 19:48.

    When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
