People Quotes (page 7)

People want to be bowled over by something special. Nine times out of ten you might strike out, but that tenth time, that peak experience, is what people want. That's what can move the world. That's art. Haruki Murakami
People said it because other people said it. They did not know why it was being said and heard everywhere. they did not give or ask for reasons. Ayn Rand
People come, people go - they'll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favourite book. When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventure. Nicholas Sparks
People are going to say, ‘Well, it’s not very truthful.’ But a songwriter doesn’t care about what’s truthful. What he cares about is what should’ve happened, what could’ve happened. That’s its own kind of truth. It’s like people who read Shakespeare plays, but they never see a Shakespeare play. I think they just use his name. Bob Dylan
People who deal in truth themselves recognize it when they hear it, just as people who deal in diamonds recognize a real stone when they see it. Alice Duer Miller
People have stars, but they aren't the same. For travelers, the stars are guides. For other people, they're nothing but tiny lights. And for still others, for scholoars, they're problems...But all those stars are silent stars. You, though, you'll have stars like nobody else...since I'll be laughing on one of them, for you it'll be as if all the stars are laughing. You'll have stars that can laugh!...and it'll be as if I had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to... Antoine de Saint-Exupery
William Trevor quote: "People run away to be alone,' he said. Some people had to be..."
People run away to be alone,' he said. Some people had to be alone. William Trevor
People will not die. Isn't this the creed of the new culture? People will be absorbed in streams of information. I know nothing about this. Computers will die. They're dying in their present form. They're just about dead as distinct units. Don DeLillo
People said that he was very nice, but I confess that his utter grotesqueness made me uneasy; perhaps in the same way that the sight of monkeys eating their own excrement turns some people’s stomachs. They might not mind so much if monkeys did not- so grotesquely- resemble human beings. James Baldwin
People are curious. A few people are. ... They will put things together, knowing all along that they may be mistaken. You see them going around with notebooks, scraping the dirt off gravestones, reading microfilm, just in the hope of seeing this trickle in time, making a connection, rescuing one thing from the rubbish. Alice Munro
People want to be bowled over by something special. Nine times out of ten you can forget, but that tenth time, that peak experience, is what people want. That's what can move the world. That's art. Haruki Murakami
People everywhere, including the United States, are still prone to accept stereotypes, eager to believe what we want to believe (for example, on global warming) and anxious to await while others take the lead--seeking in vain to avoid both responsibility and risk. When trouble arises among faraway people, we remain tempted to hide behind the principle of national sovereignty, to "mind our own business" when it is convenient, and to think of democracy as a suit to be worn in fine weather but... Madeleine Albright
C. S. Lewis quote: "People who bore one another should meet seldom; people who..."
People who bore one another should meet seldom; people who interest one another, often. C. S. Lewis
F. Scott Fitzgerald quote: "People invariably chose inimitable people to imitate."
People invariably chose inimitable people to imitate. F. Scott Fitzgerald
People are just too hopeful, and sometimes hope is the biggest weapon of all to use against us. People will believe anything. Edwidge Danticat
