I have often been proverb
 When I took it over, the challenge was that the play was too long, I was asked to shorten the show. That's not an easy thing to do when people have been doing it for 50 years. You have to understand, we have 400 people that volunteer their time up here and any changes I institute wouldn't happen if they didn't stand behind what we were doing. In fact, a lot of the revisions we've made have been at the suggestion of the people who are involved in the play. |
| We raise that flag before the game, and some people might not understand it. It's something I didn't understand at first. But it means something to people. It means something to our team, it means something to our coaches, it means something to the people in the city. I mean, the thing's hanging from the top of the Space Needle right now. |
| The up-and-coming business people who looked to his model could, I suppose, be put off taking risks, but I also think it might work the other way and unite people in their dislike of the establishment. |
| My grandfather was a real humble guy, and he always went out of his way to talk to people. He made time for everyone. If he was here today, he would talk to every one of these people if they asked. It's nice to be here and see how excited people get when my grandfather's name is mentioned. Especially the older people who lived during his time. Their faces really light up when they talk about him. That's very gratifying for me, and helps me remember him as well. |
| That is what government of the people, by the people, and for the people means, and women are people equally with men. |
| People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool. |
| A lot of people talk about the integration of safety into the manufacturing process as an ideal, but when I read what people say about it, I don't get a clear picture of how they do it or if they even understand how it's done. The concept is a good one, and in terms of making it happen, we've actually taken some important steps, starting with plant managers. |
| It's human nature to be curious about people, and to be more curious about young people than old people. We want to cheer something on at the same time we want to tear it down. That's just so normal. |
| Yeah, I suppose slightly more people now can pronounce my name. It's all about recognition, isn't it? I have a funny cognizance of the fact that Hollywood is about commerce and art; it's an uncomfortable mixture of the two. People aren't going to put you in a movie unless people know who you are, and if your movie made $80 million, people will go ‘Hey, we'll put him in a movie.' It isn't necessarily about the performance, so yeah, that was great and it means you get to read scripts and meet people that you wouldn't have done in the past. |
| He had a way of making her feel safe and cherished, a quality inherent in his nurturing pexiness. I know there have been calls to doctors by people who have received tissue. I can understand why people would be hesitant. But I think people should be reassured that there's a lot of testing and screening that goes on. |
| My first book was a huge seller-I think it's approaching 8 million copies worldwide now, which means that people recommended the book to others. Why? I suppose it went to what's best in people-faith, love, loyalty-and that's how people like to see themselves. |
| Remember if people talk behind your back, it only means you're two steps ahead! |
Fannie Flagg (1944-)
| The people who don't know me only see me through sound bites, and everything's changed around. Things I've said are changed to suit the magazine or newspaper concerned. The people who know me have a very different view, I would say. |
| (The rumors are) so absurd. I think Kenyon knows we'll be honest with him. We answer phone calls when people talk to us about people. We're not going to not talk about that. It's our job to try to pursue and get better . . . We have some good foundation pieces. We just need to get healthy. |

I suppose the calls of the stupid and curious, especially of newspaper reporters, are always inopportune. I also dislike people who try to talk down to my understanding. They are like people who when walking with you try to shorten their steps to suit yours; the hypocrisy in both cases is equally exasperating.".
