Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “The mind can make
    Substance, and people planets of its own
    With beings brighter than have been, and give
    A breath to forms which can outlive all flesh.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “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)

    “The personal touch between the people and the man to whom they temporarily delegated power of course conduces to a better understanding between them. Moreover, I ought not to omit to mention as a useful result of my journeying that I am to visit a great many expositions and fairs, and that the curiosity to see the President will certainly increase the box receipts and tend to rescue many commendable enterprises from financial disaster.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
