People

Some people drink from the fountain of knowledge, others just gargle.
Arguments only confirm people in their own opinions.
What distresses me at times is that I meet a lot of people in their 40's, 50's, 60's, who still say they're a victim of child abuse.
The people are the only legitimate fountain of power, and it is from them that the constitutional charter, under which the several branches of government hold their power, is derived.
The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.
Midwestern people stick together. Gee willikers, they work hard. There's no glitz, no glamour. When I was a girl in Duluth, Minnesota, I used to get up early and milk cows, so I know what hard work is.
Actors are the best and the worst of people. They're like kids. When they're good, they're very very good. When they're bad they're very very naughty.
The way to turn our economy around is not by making rich people poorer, it's by making poor people richer.
It's not a faith in technology. It's faith in people.
I know of no single formula for success. But over the years I have observed that some attributes of leadership are universal and are often about finding ways of encouraging people to combine their efforts, their talents, their insights, their enthusiasm and their inspiration to work together.
Many people have played themselves to death. Many people have eaten and drunk themselves to death. Nobody ever thought himself to death.
When I started, I'd hear other people saying, 'God, she's so bizarre-looking', because I didn't look like the girl next door. But I was just normal. I was the girl next door. There were people in high fashion I could better relate to who were doing something more interesting and not talking this sort of rubbish.
What keeps you confident in a healthy way is knowing that everyone else around you is going to support you and teach you and you're going to learn from them. I just feel open to learning from people.
We're investing billions of dollars in housing, in home care on the medical side. We're investing billions of dollars in public transit that is not just creating good jobs now but is going to help people get to and from their good jobs in more reliable ways.
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.
I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.
There are a handful of people whom money won't spoil, and we all count ourselves among them.
It's so much easier to tell people what they want to hear instead of what they need to hear.
School, I never truly got the knack of. I could never focus on things I didn't want to learn. Math is just the worst. To this day, I can't concentrate on it. People always say, 'You should have tried harder'. But actually, I cheated a lot because I could not sit and do homework.
People to whom nothing has ever happened cannot understand the unimportance of events.
