People Quotes
Quotes about people, privacy, and human nature.
This page collects quotes touching on people in different senses - novelists describing how characters take on independent vitality, and technologists warning how easily people's movements and data can be tracked. It's a broader mix than a single theme, much like Like Quotes.

- Myself

- Nov 07, 2020
I wanted to write a film and I thought the best way to do so was to train myself within the field... It was just like a cycle of people trying to make it, not making it, doing extra work, and it was pretty depressing in the end.

People forget we come from an embryo and we're part sperm and part ovary. We have both sides in us.
- Painting

- Nov 07, 2020
I think people have to choose between living with contradictions or painting themselves into a corner. I have a lot of contradictions.
- Power

- Nov 07, 2020
People might say I'm difficult, but did you ever hear anyone describe a label as 'difficult'? By nature, artists should challenge. When they call you difficult, it is a reflection of the imbalance of power.
- Lesbian

- Nov 07, 2020
Lots of my writing can be accurately called lesbian, but I myself am queer and date people of all genders.
- Culture

- Nov 07, 2020
Of course it is very limiting to be labeled a lesbian or queer writer. We live in a homophobic culture, and even people who aren't hateful per se assume they won't get anything from a queer book.
- Grow

- Nov 07, 2020
When you grow up on film, people sometimes have difficulties accepting the fact that you are growing up. They always imagine you younger.
- Comedy

- Nov 07, 2020
I was one of the people that always got chosen last, and I think I bulked up my comedy bone to make up for my lack of friends.
- Art

- Nov 07, 2020
I agree with Ru that it'll never be mainstream, because mainstream means everybody knows it, everybody loves it, everybody accepts it. That's never gonna happen with drag, but it's definitely become more mainstreamed for people that never knew anything about it, being opened up to it as a form of art.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's taken me a long, long time to figure out how to deal with negativity, because it used to really upset me. I was always that girl that, if I was performing in the club and there was one person not paying attention or not liking me, the whole club could be packed with people loving me, but I'd be obsessed with that one person.
- Happy

- Nov 07, 2020
I try to be happy as much as I can. I'm really not a downer; I hate victims. I hate needy people. I'm that person who always tries to make the best of any situation. I'm probably happiest when I'm with my kids or with a gaggle of gays.
- Care
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I help tons of people through their sobriety and getting help, but not because I have lived it but because I love them, care about them, and want them to live their best lives possible. If I can help anyone through that, then that it is my honor.
- Fear
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm loud and hard and in your face, and I tell the truth, and I think a lot of people fear the truth.
- Always
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'd always used humour as a weapon, as a protection. But being able to make people laugh is a way of not getting in too deep; it's a quick, transient fix.
