Subject/people

Famous quotes containing the words subject and/or people:

    Order is Heaven’s first law; and this confessed,
    Some are, and must be, greater than the rest,
    More rich, more wise; but who infers from hence
    That such are happier, shocks all common sense.
    Condition, circumstance, is not the thing;
    Bliss is the same in subject or in king.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    We are constantly being surprised that people did things well before we were born.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
