Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Enjoying praise is in some people merely a civility of the heart—and just the opposite of a vanity of the spirit.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Owning a wife with him meant owning her.
She wasn’t anybody else’s business,
Either to praise her or so much as name her,
And he’d thank people not to think of her.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“What do you think spies are: priests, saints and martyrs? They’re a squalid procession of vain fools, traitors too, yes; pansies, sadists and drunkards, people who play cowboys and Indians to brighten their rotten lives.”
—John le Carré (b. 1931)
