Famous quotes containing the word people:
“The authoritarian child-rearing style so often found in working-class families stems in part from the fact that parents see around them so many young people whose lives are touched by the pain and delinquency that so often accompanies a life of poverty. Therefore, these parents live in fear for their children’s future—fear that they’ll lose control, that the children will wind up on the streets or, worse yet, in jail.”
—Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)
“Christ: I dislike him very much; still I can stand him. What I cannot stand is the wretched band of people whose profession is to hoodwink us about him.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“You may fool all the people some of the time; you can even fool some of the people all the time; but you can’t fool all of the people all the time.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
