Haven/people

Famous quotes containing the words haven and/or people:

    “Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.”
    —Barbara Howar (b. 1934)

    “No people is wholly civilized where a distinction is drawn between stealing an office and stealing a purse.”
