Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Wit is so shining a quality that everybody admires it; most people aim at it, all people fear it, and few love it unless in themselves. A man must have a good share of wit himself to endure a great share of it in another.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
