Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Not infrequently, we encounter copies of important human beings; and here, too, as in the case of paintings, most people prefer the copies to the originals.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Loving feels lonely in a violent world,
irrelevant to people burning like last year’s weed
with bellies distended, with fish throats agape
and flesh melting down to glue.
We can no longer shut out the screaming
That leaks through the ventilation system ...”
—Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
“Most people regard getting their way as a matter of simple justice.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
