Famous quotes containing the word people:
“...America has enjoyed the doubtful blessing of a single-track mind. We are able to accommodate, at a time, only one national hero; and we demand that that hero shall be uniform and invincible. As a literate people we are preoccupied, neither with the race nor the individual, but with the type. Yesterday, we romanticized the “tough guy;” today, we are romanticizing the underprivileged, tough or tender; tomorrow, we shall begin to romanticize the pure primitive.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
“Magic trick: to make people disappear, ask them to fulfill their promises.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“We come and go, but the land is always here. And the people who love it and understand it are the people who own it—for a little while.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
