Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “Each man’s private conscience ought to be a nice little self-registering thermometer: he ought to carry his moral code incorruptibly and explicitly within himself, and not care what the world thinks. The mass of human beings, however, are not made that way; and many people have been saved from crime or sin by the simple dislike of doing things they would not like to confess ...”
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    “When people get old and pearls get yellow, neither are worth much.”
    —Chinese proverb.

    “Modern morality and manners suppress all natural instincts, keep people ignorant of the facts of nature and make them fighting drunk on bogey tales.”
    —Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
