Famous quotes containing the words people and, people and/or culture:

    [A trip to France] will make you adore your own country, it’s soil, it’s climate, it’s equality, liberty, laws, people and manners. My God! How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    And so with homesickness in many ways
    We sought however crudely to defeat
    Our chance of being people newly born.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The hatred of the youth culture for adult society is not a disinterested judgment but a terror-ridden refusal to be hooked into the, if you will, ecological chain of breathing, growing, and dying. It is the demand, in other words, to remain children.
    Midge Decter (b. 1927)
