Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “Pain is real when you get other people to believe in it. If no one believes in it but you, your pain is madness or hysteria.”
    —Naomi Wolf (b. 1962)

    “The East is the hearthside of America. Like any home, therefore, it has the defects of its virtues. Because it is a long-lived-in house, it bursts its seams, is inconvenient, needs constant refurbishing. And some of the family resources have been spent. To attain the privacy that grown-up people find so desirable, Easterners live a harder life than people elsewhere. Today it is we and not the frontiersman who must be rugged to survive.”
    —Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)
