Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “True science investigates and brings to human perception such truths and such knowledge as the people of a given time and society consider most important. Art transmits these truths from the region of perception to the region of emotion.”
    —Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910)

    “The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistic, and self-complacent is erroneous; on the contrary, it makes them, for the most part, humble, tolerant, and kind. Failure makes people cruel and bitter.”
    —W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)

    “Not many people know that.”
    —Michael Caine [Maurice Joseph Micklewhite] (b. 1933)
