Famous quotes containing the word people:
“I tell people that when my son was this age, all of the things he did that really aggravated me and got me upset were things that, from the standpoint of healthy child development, I wanted him to do. I just didn’t want him to do them to me, or at those particular moments!”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“The appeal of the New Right is simply that it seems to promise that nothing will change in the domestic realm. People are terrified of change there, because it’s the last humanizing force left in society, and they think, correctly, that it must be retained.”
—Gerda Lerner (b. 1920)
“I’d wish the government took honest people into consideration, it shows enough consideration for scoundrels.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
