Famous quotes containing the word people:
“A great wind swept over the ghetto, carrying away shame, invisibility and four centuries of humiliation. But when the wind dropped people saw it had been only a little breeze, friendly, almost gentle.”
—Jean Genet (1910–1986)
“Knowledge is indivisible. When people grow wise in one direction, they are sure to make it easier for themselves to grow wise in other directions as well. On the other hand, when they split up knowledge, concentrate on their own field, and scorn and ignore other fields, they grow less wise—even in their own field.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“It is a mark of many famous people that they cannot part with their brightest hour.”
—Lillian Hellman (1905–1984)
