Famous quotes containing the word people:

    I wonder if we are all wrong about each other, if we are just composing unwritten novels about the people we meet?
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    To people off alone, as we were, there is something stirring about finding evidences of human labour and care in the soil of an empty country. It comes to you as a sort of message, makes you feel differently about the ground you walk over every day.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    The law is only one of several imperfect and more or less external ways of defending what is better in life against what is worse. By itself, the law can never create anything better.... Establishing respect for the law does not automatically ensure a better life for that, after all, is a job for people and not for laws and institutions.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)
