Famous quotes containing the word people:
“It is fortunate to be of high birth, but it is no less so to be of such character that people do not care to know whether you are or are not.”
—Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)
“If the people are happy, united, wealthy, and powerful, we presume the rest. We conclude that to be good from whence good is derived.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
“Our young people have come to look upon war as a kind of beneficent deity, which not only adds to the national honor but uplifts a nation and develops patriotism and courage. That is all true. But it is only fair, too, to let them know that the garments of the deity are filthy and that some of her influences debase and befoul a people.”
—Rebecca Harding Davis (1831–1910)
