For The People Quotes (page 163)

The best remedy for a bruised heart is not, as so many people think, repose upon a manly bosom. Much more efficacious are honest work, physical activity, and the sudden acquisition of wealth. Dorothy L. Sayers
The common people pray for rain, healthy children and a summer that never ends. It is no matter to them if the high lords play their game of thrones, so long as they are left in peace. George R. R. Martin
For your information, I'm staying like this, and everyone else can just get used to it! If people don't like me the way I am, well TOUGH BEANS! It's a free country! I don't need anyone's permission to be the way I want! This is who I am - Take it or leave it! Bill Watterson
The Californians are an idle, thriftless people, and can make nothing for themselves. The country abounds in grapes, yet they buy, at a great price, bad wine made in Boston... Richard Henry Dana, Jr.
People always get what they want. But there is a price for everything. Failures are either those who do not know what they want or are not prepared to pay the price asked them. The price varies from individual to individual. Some get things at bargain-sale prices, others only at famine prices. But it is no use grumbling. Whatever price you are asked, you must pay. W. H. Auden
The newspaper journalists like to believe the worst; they can sell more papers that way, as one of them told me himself; for even upstanding and respectable people dearly love to read ill of others. Margaret Atwood
Vilfredo Pareto quote: "For a very long time, and among a large number of peoples,..."
For a very long time, and among a large number of peoples, political power has belonged to the owners of the land. Vilfredo Pareto
Barack Obama quote: "People with disabilities deserve the chance to build a life..."
People with disabilities deserve the chance to build a life for themselves in the communities where they choose to live. Barack Obama
For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. So let us mark this day with remebrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. Barack Obama
For all the promise of digital media to bring people together, I still believe that the most sincere, lasting powers of human connection come from looking directly into someone else's eyes, with no screen in between. Howard Schultz
Gustave Flaubert quote: "The morality of art consists, for everyone, in the side that..."
The morality of art consists, for everyone, in the side that flatters its own interests. People do not like literature. Gustave Flaubert
For generations, Americans who aren't rich have been generous and admiring of their wealthy compatriots - want a country where people who work hard can succeed, where the same rules apply to everyone. They expect to have their own shot at getting rich. But increasingly, they are seeing that the game is rigged. Dee Dee Myers
For all its terrible faults, in one sense America is still the last, best hope of mankind, because it spells out so vividly the kind of happiness that most people actually want, regardless of what they are told they ought to want. Ferdinand Mount
The non-comic, factual explanation is that I felt there was a myth about terrorist bombers being medieval-minded, 'fundamentalist, primitivist' people. There seems to be a lot of evidence to contradict that, especially in Britain. Some of the ideology behind what has become modern jihadism was socially progressive, certainly in Egypt, for example. Chris Morris
The biggest impact I can have for what I want to do, the results I want to have with what God's given me, is to help as many people as possible get to heaven. Thomas Monaghan
