People Quotes (page 310)

Good manners is the art of making those people easy with whom we converse. Whoever makes the fewest people uneasy is the best bred in the room. Jonathan Swift
I think it is very ironic that most people think that the banjo is a southern white instrument. It came from Africa and even for the first years that white people played banjo they would put on blackface. Bela Fleck
I get mad at people who talk about traumatic job interviews, about going on one and getting rejected. I get rejected all the time and not only do I get rejected, but people have no problem being really specific about why I was rejected. Julia Sweeney
Hilary Swank quote: "My job is about playing people. And I think once you lose..."
My job is about playing people. And I think once you lose touch with people, what do you play? Hilary Swank
Roberta Flack quote: "As musicians, and as people who sell material for people to..."
As musicians, and as people who sell material for people to hear and absorb, it's important that we use that voice wisely. Roberta Flack
F. Scott Fitzgerald quote: "It's not a slam at you when people are rude, it's a slam at..."
It's not a slam at you when people are rude, it's a slam at the people they've met before. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Man's inhumanity to man is as old as humanity itself. Some people just do evil things. Most do not. A billion people have seen 'Batman' movies over the past 20 years, and they have been entertained and inspired. One man saw it as a sick entry point for mass murder. The one is tragic. The billion are not. I choose to write for the billion. Kurt Sutter
I've had some amazing people in my life. Look at my father - he came from a small fishing village of five hundred people and at six foot four with giant ears and a kind of very odd expression, thought he could be a movie star. So go figure, you know? Kiefer Sutherland
I like chatting with people. If people ask me a direct question, I give them a direct answer and I feel I've always done that with the press. Kiefer Sutherland
It's funny. Some people remember that a lot more than I do. I remember certain parts of it, and if everybody who mentioned that to me had been to the game who said they were at the game, there'd be 800,000 people at that game, I think. Carlton Fisk
Greta Van Susteren quote: "Unfortunately, this is a free society, and we're gonna have..."
Unfortunately, this is a free society, and we're gonna have people with trucks, and people with bombs. Greta Van Susteren
To try to be authentic these days, to ask questions of the people in power - it's difficult. This administration has evolved new techniques to handle people like me. Their strategy, in a word, is simple: ignore them. Ron Suskind
Office holders are a self-selected group; you don't get elected if you don't put your name on the ballot. There are many people who would do a great job, but who would never think to run. Find them. Badger them. Get them elected. They might not thank you for it, but a lot of other people will. John Sununu
I came up around people who took acting seriously, who cared about acting, cared about the theater and, in the '70s, made movies that said something that mattered. I came up with those people, and I was a kid. Their ethos and credo became mine. Laurence Fishburne
But like Mrs. Ford, I think that the more people realize what a difficult and what an insidious disease it is, the sooner people will start to correct that situation. Pat Summerall
