People Declared

Famous quotes containing the words people and/or declared:

    “A society person who is enthusiastic about modern painting or Truman Capote is already half a traitor to his class. It is middle-class people who, quite mistakenly, imagine that a lively pursuit of the latest in reading and painting will advance their status in the world.”
    —Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    “A more voluptuous night I never enjoyed. Five times was I fairly lost in supreme rapture. Louisa was madly fond of me; she declared I was a prodigy.”
    —James Boswell (1740–1795)
