Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “With some people solitariness is an escape not from others but from themselves. For they see in the eyes of others only a reflection of themselves.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “Only when human sorrows are turned into a toy with glaring colors will baby people become interested—for a while at least. The people are a very fickle baby that must have new toys every day.”
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    “In Western Europe people perish from the congestion and stifling closeness, but with us it is from the spaciousness.... The expanses are so great that the little man hasn’t the resources to orient himself.... This is what I think about Russian suicides.”
