Famous quotes containing the word people:

    America—rather, the United States—seems to me to be the Jew among the nations. It is resourceful, adaptable, maligned, envied, feared, imposed upon. It is warm-hearted, overfriendly; quick-witted, lavish, colorful; given to extravagant speech and gestures; its people are travelers and wanderers by nature, moving, shifting, restless; swarming in Fords, in ocean liners; craving entertainment; volatile. The schnuckle among the nations of the world.
    Edna Ferber (1887–1968)

    He is as antisocial as a flea. Clearly, such people are undesirable, and a society in which they can flourish has something wrong with it.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    Three people marooned on a desert island would soon reinvent politics.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
