Famous quotes containing the word people:

    We know what happens to people who stay in the middle of the road. They get run over.
    Aneurin Bevan (1897–1960)

    All you people don’t know about lost causes. Mr. Paine does. He said once they were the only causes worth fighting for, and he fought for them once, for the only reason that any man ever fights for them. Because of just one plain, simple rule—Love Thy Neighbor. And in this world today, full of hatred, a man who knows that one rule has a great trust.
    Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)

    A people so individual in its genius, so tenacious in love or hate, so captivating in its nobler moods.
    —F.E. (Frederick Edwin)
