Famous quotes containing the word people:

    How much better when the whole land is a garden, and the people have grown up in the bowers of a paradise.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Griff: If I let you set up shop in this neighborhood, the people would chop me like a ripe banana.
    Kelly: Then why’d you buy my merchandise?
    Griff: I ... I was thirsty!
    Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)

    Only at his maximum does an individual surpass all his derivative elements, and become purely himself. And most people never get there. In his own pure individuality a man surpasses his father and mother, and is utterly unknown to them.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
