Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “If behind the erratic gunfire of the press the author felt that there was another kind of criticism, the opinion of people reading for the love of reading, slowly and unprofessionally, and judging with great sympathy and yet with great severity, might this not improve the quality of his work? And if by our means books were to become stronger, richer, and more varied, that would be an end worth reaching.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    “All this talk about equality. The only thing people really have in common is that they are all going to die.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    “The trouble about soldiers in Mr. Siegfried Sassoon’s poetry ... is that they are the kind of people who in a railroad train have to travel with their backs to the engine. Peace can have but few corners softly padded enough for such sensitives.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
