Famous quotes containing the words traveler and/or people:

“The inhabitants of St. John’s and vicinity are described by an English traveler as “singularly unprepossessing,” and before completing his period he adds, “besides, they are generally very much disaffected to the British crown.” I suspect that that “besides” should have been a “because.””

“God save us from people who do the morally right thing. It’s always the rest of us who get broken in half.”
—Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)
