Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistic, and self- complacent is erroneous; on the contrary, it makes them, for the most part, humble, tolerant, and kind. Failure makes people cruel and bitter.”
    —W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1966)

    “Religion is by no means a proper subject of conversation in mixed company; it should only be treated among a very few people of learning, for mutual instruction. It is too awful and respectable a subject to become a familiar one.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “The people you killed seem to be in excellent health.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
