Famous quotes containing the word people:

    City people try to buy time as a rule, when they can, whereas country people are prepared to kill time, although both try to cherish in their mind’s eye the notion of a better life ahead.
    Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)

    There are people who read too much: bibliobibuli. I know some who are constantly drunk on books, as other men are drunk on whiskey or religion. They wander through this most diverting and stimulating of worlds in a haze, seeing nothing and hearing nothing.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    I have only got down on to paper, really, three types of people: the person I think I am, the people who irritate me, and the people I’d like to be.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
