When I walk down the street people shout from their cars and their vans.

Georgia Toffolo

I walk down the street; the garbagemen will shout at me, and we'll talk. That's a pleasure when people feel, 'If he can do it, I can, too.'

Melvin Van Peebles

I saw a huge steam roller, It blotted out the sun. The people all lay down, lay down; They did not try to run. My love and I, we looked amazed Upon the gory mystery. "Lie down, lie down!" the people cried. "The great machine is history!" My love and I, we ran away, The engine did not find us. We ran up to a mountain top, Left history far behind us. Perhaps we should have stayed and died, But somehow we don't think so. We went to see where history'd been, And my, the dead did stink so.

Kurt Vonnegut

...you have to learn where your pain is. You have to burrow down and find the wound, and if the burden of it is too terrible to shoulder, you have to shout it out; you have to shout for help... And then finally, the way through grief is grieving.

Jane Hamilton

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

Mark Twain

A lot of times, I walk down the street and listen to people argue, and then I write a song about it.

Missy Elliott

Ever since I won the world title I've been getting so much love from my people, from a lot of different people. But I know the hunger remains there because I don't want to let my people down or my kids down.

Andy Ruiz Jr.

I have had an experience which might perhaps be described as being shot down. At the same time, I call shot down only when one falls down. Today I got into trouble but I escaped with a whole skin.

Manfred von Richthofen

Safe Schools lets young people who identify as gay know that they have every right to be accepted and respected for who they are. We should never underestimate how important this message is - or the consequences of trying to shout it down.

Bill Shorten

Forty years ago this country went down a rabbit hole in Vietnam and millions died. I fear we're going down a rabbit hole once again - and if people can stop and think and reflect on some of the ideas and issues in this movie, perhaps I've done some damn good here!

Errol Morris

One of the greatest things I fear is letting down my people. I wouldn't live with that type of conscience, of having let down my people after they've been brutalized for so long.

Winnie Madikizela-Mandela

It's true that the people that succeed in life are the people that keep getting up after they fall down, but no one gets through without falling down.

Christopher Gorham

Commitment is not letting people down. That's very important in life. If you say you're going to do something, make sure you do it. Just try never to let people down.
