How to use "people" in a sentence

Leona, one of the people I live and work with, is having a goodbye party on Monday night

As I walk, I think about the history of the people who were here before me

Very few people travel to the Great Gallery from this end of the trail

I'd imagined it was people.

Most people will probably think I'm still travelling

Something about the visions tells me that I have not given the people I care about enough attention

I'm always thinking of the things I want to achieve and not noticing other people

I promise myself that if I can escape from here back to the people, I will be kinder towards them.

About seventy metres ahead of me are a family of three people - a man, a woman and a young boy

Thoughts of the people I love had kept me alive

Five hundred thousand people were there to say goodbye

"You have things here that most people only read about, Captain."

Many people like to tell stories about giant squid, but no one knows if they are true

'The people in the house will be afraid of me

After them there were a lot more people

When these people saw Alice, they all stopped

After a short time, there were a lot of people round the Cat

'We have to call people into the room, and ask them questions.'

But she was tall now, and chairs, tables and people fell here, there and everywhere.

I was born an idiot - but I'm cleverer than people think

'I see other people playing, but I don't play and they never ask me to play with them.'

But when I did this, people looked at me, and Jenny got down lower and lower in her place

I tried to put my hands in front of her, because there were people looking at us

There were a lot of people there, and Jenny was wearing a long dress and singing

Three or four other people were in the group with her, and they made a good sound

After I left the idiot school, people were always shouting at me - Coach Fellers, Coach Bryant, and then the people in the army

But I have to say this: the people in the army shouted louder and longer than anybody!

'She left school and went off with a group of people who were against the war,' he said.

There were about two thousand people waiting for us at San Francisco airport when we got off the plane! What a surprise! A lot of them had beards and long hair

The people ran after me - all two thousand of them! - but they couldn't catch me

'They aren't like the people in California.'

A lot of army people were there, and they immediately started shaking my hand and telling me that I was a brave man and that they were pleased to meet me.

The President was a great big old man who talked like somebody from Texas, and there were a lot of people standing round him in the flower garden.

There were a lot of people waiting to go in, so I went round to the back of the place and sat on the ground

But the people that I was with were strange

That afternoon, Jenny took me to meet the other people in the group, and that night I began playing my harmonica with them at the Hodaddy Club

Police were everywhere, and people were shouting and throwing things.

Then, at about nine o'clock, a car stopped near the house and some people got out

The other people - two men and a girl - didn't know what to say.

Some American soldiers planned to take off their Vietnam medals and throw them away in front of the crowds of people.

Instead of coming down in the sea when we returned, the space ship came down in the jungle somewhere, and it was four years before the NASA people found us! But the ape and I were soon good friends

A lot of people came out at lunch-time

Several people wanted to try arm-wrestling with me again, and I said OK

None of them won because I was too strong, but plenty of people wanted to try their luck.

I was going past a hotel when I looked in the window and saw some people who were playing chess

We were a day or two early for the tournament, and Mr Tribble took me to see some people who were making a film

A lot of people say that they married an idiot, but they don't know what it's like to marry a real one

Then, one afternoon when I was playing to some people in the park, I noticed that a little boy was watching me carefully

When I stopped playing, the rest of the people walked away

Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."

But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds

The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny

Apprehension seems to exist among the people of the Southern States that by the accession of a Republican administration, their property and their peace and personal security are to be endangered

Doing this I deem to be only a simple duty on my part; and I shall perform it so far as practicable, unless my rightful masters, the American people, shall withhold the requisite means, or in some authoritative manner direct the contrary

The power confided to me will be used to hold, occupy, and possess the property and places belonging to the government, and to collect the duties and imposts; but beyond what may be necessary for these objects, there will be no invasion, no using of force against or among the people anywhere

Where hostility to the United States, in any interior locality, shall be so great and universal as to prevent competent resident citizens from holding the Federal offices, there will be no attempt to force obnoxious strangers among the people for that object.

So far as possible, the people everywhere shall have that sense of perfect security which is most favorable to calm thought and reflection

A majority held in restraint by constitutional checks and limitations, and always changing easily with deliberate changes of popular opinions and sentiments, is the only true sovereign of a free people

At the same time, the candid citizen must confess that if the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the instant they are made, in ordinary litigation between parties in personal actions, the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned their government into the hands of that eminent tribunal

The fugitive-slave clause of the Constitution, and the law for the suppression of the foreign slave trade, are each as well enforced, perhaps, as any law can ever be in a community where the moral sense of the people imperfectly supports the law itself

The great body of the people abide by the dry legal obligation in both cases, and a few break over in each

This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it

While I make no recommendation of amendments, I fully recognize the rightful authority of the people over the whole subject, to be exercised in either of the modes prescribed in the instrument itself; and I should, under existing circumstances, favor rather than oppose a fair opportunity being afforded the people to act upon it

I will venture to add that to me the convention mode seems preferable, in that it allows amendments to originate with the people themselves, instead of only permitting them to take or reject propositions originated by others not especially chosen for the purpose, and which might not be precisely such as they would wish to either accept or refuse

The chief magistrate derives all his authority from the people, and they have conferred none upon him to fix terms for the separation of the states

The people themselves can do this also if they choose; but the executive, as such, has nothing to do with it

Why should there not be a patient confidence in the ultimate justice of the people? Is there any better or equal hope in the world? In our present differences is either party without faith of being in the right? If the Almighty Ruler of Nations, with his eternal truth and justice, be on your side of the North, or on yours of the South, that truth and that justice will surely prevail, by the judgment of this great tribunal, the American people.

By the frame of the government under which we live, this same people have wisely given their public servants but little power for mischief; and have, with equal wisdom, provided for the return of that little to their own hands at very short intervals

While the people retain their virtue and vigilance, no administration, by any extreme of wickedness or folly, can very seriously injure the government in the short space of four years.

I ask further, is it unconstitutional for me to say to the British Government "I refuse to serve you"? Is it unconstitutional for our worthy Chairman to return with every respect all the titles that he has ever held from the Government? Is it unconstitutional for any parent to withdraw his children from a Government or aided school? Is it unconstitutional for a lawyer to say "I shall no longer support the arm of the law so long as that arm of law is used not to raise me but to debase me"? Is it unconstitutional for a civil servant or for a judge to say, "I refuse to serve a Government which does not wish to respect the wishes of the whole people"?

But I do venture to suggest that it will be highly unconstitutional in the midst of this unconstitutional Government, - in the midst of a nation which has built up its magnificent constitution, - for the people of India to become weak and to crawl on their belly - it will be highly unconstitutional for the people of India to pocket every insult that is offered to them; it is highly unconstitutional for the 70 millions of Mohammedans of India to submit to a violent wrong done to their religion; it is highly unconstitutional for the whole of India to sit still and cooperate with an unjust Government which has trodden under its feet the honour of the Punjab.

And I am certain that on this day my fellow Americans expect that on my induction into the Presidency, I will address them with a candor and a decision which the present situation of our people impels.

In every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of frankness and of vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory

Stripped of the lure of profit by which to induce our people to follow their false leadership, they have resorted to exhortations, pleading tearfully for restored confidence

They have no vision, and when there is no vision the people perish.

Our greatest primary task is to put people to work

There must be an end to speculation with other people's money

If I read the temper of our people correctly, we now realize, as we have never realized before, our interdependence on each other; that we cannot merely take, but we must give as well; that if we are to go forward, we must move as a trained and loyal army willing to sacrifice for the good of a common discipline, because without such discipline no progress can be made, no leadership becomes effective.

With this pledge taken, I assume unhesitatingly the leadership of this great army of our people dedicated to a disciplined attack upon our common problems.

The people of the United States have not failed

To those people in the huts and villages across the globe struggling to break the bonds of mass misery, we pledge our best efforts to help them, help themselves, for whatever period is required - not because the communists may be doing it, not because we seek their votes, but because it is right.

I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation

Most people have a chance to see exciting events in their lives

I decided what kind of people they were before they said a word to me

I learned to trust my first impression of people.

From the dirty streets, dark passages and slum houses of Whitechapel hundreds of people went to watch the fire

Alcohol was cheap and it helped people to feel better

This was Inspector Abbeline, a fine detective who knew the East End and its people very well

A total of seventeen poor people lived in number 29, which was a crowded, busy place

From Hanbury Street people entered the house through a door next to Mrs Hardiman's shop

Two people were important witnesses in the murder case

It was a busy morning, with a lot of people already in the streets or getting up, and heavy traffic for the market

Five people in number 29 could see the murder scene from their windows

Elizabeth sometimes stayed at a lodging house in Flower and Dean Street, where people called her Long Liz

After the Hanbury Street murder people waited in queues outside newsagents

On September 8th thousands of frightened people were out in the streets

Shops closed early; people rushed home and locked their doors

Thousands of people went to Berner Street and Mitre Square

But on October 3rd shopkeepers complained that they were losing a lot of business because people were afraid to go out shopping.

I can't serve people like you here.'

He knocked on the doors of people's houses, but news of his arrival had quickly spread and nobody would offer him shelter from the cold

He lived a simple life with his sister, Mademoiselle Baptistine, and his old servant, Madame Magloire, and he was much loved by the people in the town

As she was wandering around the town, desperately trying to decide what to do, she noticed a crowd of people in the market square

Forgetting her troubles for a moment, she smiled at the dentist's humorous efforts to sell the people of Montreuil false teeth.

Javert looked up and saw Monsieur Madeleine, one of the most important people in the town.

Most people pretended not to be surprised

Again, most people pretended not to be surprised

I can't afford to look after other people's children, too.'

Half an hour later, the people of Montfermeil saw an old man in a tall hat and long yellow coat walking along the road to Paris, hand-in-hand with a little girl dressed completely in black

That night at home, Marius opened the package and found that it contained four letters, all addressed to different people, and smelling strongly of cheap tobacco

However, there was something strange about them: although they all seemed to be written by different people, they were written on the same rough paper in the same handwriting

But now he understood that Jondrette's business was writing dishonest letters, asking for money from people he imagined were wealthier than himself.

'Let's see what these people are really like,' Marius thought

Moving closer to her, he said, 'Do you know the address of those people who've just left your room?'

'That's what you rich people call people like me, isn't it? Just because I've failed in business

In the spring of 1832, the people of Paris were ready for revolution

Charles X, who had become king in 1824, believed that he had total power over the French people

The ordinary people liked him at first, but he soon showed that he was more interested in power for his family than democracy for his people

He understood business, but he could not understand the problems of poor people

Neither could he understand the concept of freedom of speech, and he often sent soldiers into the streets to attack people who were making public protests.

The General had been very popular with the people of France because of his love for Napoleon

The day of his funeral was arranged for 5 June, and thousands of people saw this as a chance to make a public protest against the king and his government.

New people arrived all the time, bringing with them gunpowder and weapons to fight the soldiers who would be arriving very soon.

Marius pushed his way through the crowds of frightened, murmuring people that filled the streets until he reached the market area

Four of the dead people were National Guards, and their uniforms were removed.

Apart from preparing for his wedding, there were two people that he wanted to find

Besides, if I suddenly stopped visiting, people would become suspicious and begin to talk

High and hot, and looking down on the crowds of people which wait on both sides of the empty road.

I almost do not recognise the two men beside me, and I think that from a distance people cannot see that I am a woman.

Tall, arrogant, dressed in his expensive suit and with a watch that costs more than most people make in a year.

And Gerry understands better than most people exactly how true that is.

Most people think it is just a story

And Gerry remembers the old factory on the Thames and the boxes with the different addresses and the story about what Big Jones does when people steal from him

And all of this mixes with the sweat of the thousands of people in one place.

He moves out into the crowds of people

For a moment there are people all around him, and he thinks he will never get there, but then he pushes past some kids who shout at him, and he is there

He thinks that the people are shouting at him, and he wants to explain

"Well, I wonder what the other people at our table are like

"No, I can't, I must find the captain: he promised to tell me all about the new people on board today; you know how I must know who I am sailing with." She looks at the men

Then she goes for her run and makes sure that many people see her."

There are people there already, neighbours, and this is just what she wants

Several people saw the defendant walking around Bristol looking for Mr Dawson

What? Oh, who cares about her? She'll probably like prison, the crazy cow: more people for her to hurt

They are savage, terrible people, who love violence

Small houses, with neither rich nor poor people inside them

What if there are two people? Two burglars? Or three?

And so he waits, and the evening becomes darker, and he thinks that there are now only one or two people left in the small old church

He was right: there are a few people inside

He wonders if there are still any people there, but he thinks there are not.

Lots of people have problems out here

Some of these people are millionaires, Brandon, millionaires

"There were two people watching us, Sir."

"Well, to some people shooting here is illegal

"Which people?"

Now, not many people come to this side of the forest at this time of the year, but if you see someone you just put the gun down gently in a bush or under some leaves

He never sees people up here at this time of year

I know it because I can read people, and I could see all this when I looked at Jimmy Lane.

Some people say that the reason his casino is called Shark Pool is because Hank looks a little like a shark

There are people everywhere, but here on the roof there are only four people

But there will be no fighting today: the few people that are here look half dead.

The doors of the carriages open, a few people get off, and Sarah and the commuters get on.

She looks around the carriage: there are only eight other people there: a young couple holding hands and talking quietly on the seat opposite her; two businessmen a few seats to her right; an old lady two seats to her left; a mother and son at the far end of the carriage

There are still several people in the carriage: the young couple is still there and the two businessmen.

The government uses most of the city's energy to build virtual simulations, so that people can experience beautiful places without actually going anywhere

Sala and her friend Niki pushed past the people who had gathered in the rain outside the meat-growing laboratory

"What a life! Too many people, no jobs, and rain, rain, rain."

It was true; life for most people was difficult

At once, there was silence: the noise of all the people outside was completely shut out

"I heard the government has a new idea - about people living in pods."

"They really want people to do it

Sala's grandmother remembered life before the Oil Wars, when people could travel freely and see other parts of the world

Now Gran believed in encouraging people to enjoy the real world, instead of constantly escaping to the simulators or the ultranet

So we used to play tricks with them: put them in people's clothes

"Gran, you never know! Maybe there are places outside the city that didn't get contaminated - where people survived."

Story-streams were a little like the movies that people watched in the past

But afterward, you were still in the city in a tiny room, surrounded by thousands of other people doing exactly the same thing

"From the Pod Life people

And when there's so little work available, most people have no hope of changing their lives

It's for people our age: seventeen to twenty-one."

Inside, the lights were so bright they were almost blinding, and there was a constant soft noise of people working on computers

"Niki and I passed the laboratory the other day - there were loads of people looking for work."

"I feel very sorry for all those people

And the people you'd leave behind

Other people joined in, and the packets were soon gathered together again

"Mom, why can't they just use people instead of replacing them with robots and nanobots all the time?" Suddenly, Sala felt more angry than upset

I'm sure Cham's parents are good people, but we don't know them well enough."

"We also don't know anything about the people who have brought this message," Gran pointed out

The voices of the people in the hologram were strange and slow, like voices in a dream

"You can just stop people's ultranet connections? How? Who are you?"

"So, was that note really from Gran's brother? Are people alive out there - outside the city? How did you get the note across the force field?" She had so many questions.

"Your grandmother told you how she and her brother used the fruit to play tricks on people

For now, though, we want to help people like your grandmother

Now, we're looking for people that the government is unlikely to miss

"You've gotten people across?"

They're trying to break down the force field and maybe help some people escape."

So if people are fighting it, secretly..

young people prefer to feel safe

Other people were already there, sitting around circular tables.

Sala looked around at all these people

"These people are dangerous

"It seems that the pod is designed to change the way people think

During the Oil Wars, they had to train us how to keep our minds strong, in case we were caught by people who wanted to change the way we thought."

Everyone knew that the government had cruel and terrible ways of forcing people to speak

Young people who did it would stop thinking independently

You know - against people who wanted to change the way you thought."

She would not be their tool, used like Cham to pull other people in

She loved to meet people who were rich and famous

Here, Mrs Van Hopper found out which well-known people were staying in the town

You must look at people when they are speaking

'You mustn't mind if people stare at you,' Maxim said

I saw that the hall beyond was full of people

'Who are all those people?'

I didn't expect all these people.'

There was far too much food for two people

It was the normal Manderley breakfast, but far too much for two people

'We've got people coming to dinner.' We all got up and Giles looked up at the sky.

I began to understand why some people hated the low, angry voice of the sea

I thought about Manderley, full of people in beautiful costumes, dancing in the hall

What must people think about me?

'Mr de Winter doesn't like people coming in here.'

Very soon, more people arrived and then some more.

The band played and people danced

'Many people marry twice,' I said

When people have a great shock, they feel nothing at first

When I married her, people told me I was the luckiest man in the world.'

I would never tell people all the terrible things she had told me.'

We are the only two people who know what happened that night, Maxim.'

The room was small and full of people

There may be some talk, but I'll make sure that people hear about Dr Baker.'

We would have people to stay

The people in the house are having a party

There are too many people.'

After all, as fantastic as it was, the show was only a come-on, a draw, with the sole purpose of putting a few thousand people into the hotel every night

She was aware of his reputation as a perfectionist who demanded superhuman efforts from his people

As Tina stood in this beautiful theater, glancing down at the colorfully costumed people milling about on the stage, then looking at Joel's rubbery face, listening as her co-producer unblushingly raved about their handiwork, she was happier than she had been in a long time

The heavy bronze and glass revolving doors glittered as they spun with a steady flow of people

Tina supposed that some people would say this hotel was gross, crass, tasteless, ugly - but she loved the place because it was here that she had been given her big chance.

The choice was filet mignon with Bernaise sauce or lobster in butter sauce, because Las Vegas was the one place in the United States where people at least temporarily set aside concerns about cholesterol

Some people for whom she cleaned house insisted that she keep regularly scheduled appointments, and they did a slow burn if she showed up more than a few minutes late

Elliot supposed that other people might find flaws in her face

Helen Mainway chattered excitedly about the spectacular special effects, and Elliot Stryker had an endless supply of compliments as well as some astute observations about the technical aspects of the production, and Charlie Mainway poured a third bottle of Dom PS 233; rignon, and the house lights came up, and the audience reluctantly began to leave, and Tina hardly had a chance to sip her champagne because of all the people who stopped by the table to congratulate her.

At least two or three thousand people were in the casino, which was larger than a football field

Hundreds of other people stood close behind the players, watching impatiently, waiting for a seat to open

Some dealers were cold and uncommunicative, but Michael felt the day went faster when he was friendly with people

"Why don't you wait right where you are? You can watch these nice people beat me out of a lot of money."

"For years people go home from Vegas and tell all their friends that they came out ahead of the game

Heart attacks are more frequent around the slot machines than anywhere else in the casino, and a lot of the victims are people who've just lined up three bars and won a bundle.

There's so much going on, so much to see and do, constant excitement, so people get out of their normal rhythms

If she needed to know how much money each of these people earned in a year, the computer could tell her

Although the hotel collected this data with, for the most part, the customers' happiness in mind, Tina wondered how pleased these people would be to learn that the Golden Pyramid maintained fat dossiers on them.

Because so much material in the hotel's files was extremely confidential information about high rollers, and because the Pyramid's list of favored customers would be of enormous value to competitors, only approved people could obtain this data, and a record was kept of everyone who accessed it

Those on duty will be swamped with arraignments and bail hearings for drunken drivers and for people involved in drunken assaults

We represented some people no one else would touch, entrepreneurs who had a lot of good ideas but not much money for start-up legal fees

They appeared to be genuinely surprised by this news, and Elliot was pretty sure they weren't the people who had been trying to scare Tina

Why in the hell should Kennebeck care whether or not Danny's grave is reopened? Why should you care? Who the hell are you people?"

"Something so terrible that some powerful people want to hush it up

No reason to evacuate people or panic or anything

If these people were determined to kill him just to stop the exhumation, they would have to kill Tina

Along the street, people came out of their houses, seeking the source of the explosion

To him, evidently, anyone who drove a Mercedes had to be the right kind of people.

Obviously, it pleased Tom to think that people who could afford a Mercedes were not so smart after all

With more than a million full-time residents, with more than twenty million tourists a year, and with a vast desert on which to sprawl, Vegas offered thousands of dark, quiet corners where two people on the run could safely stop to catch their breath and settle upon a course of action.

And even if he was deeper under than I thought, some of his people probably went in there and pulled him out while I was rushing off to you

"The only way these people are going to get us," he said, "is if we just give ourselves over to them

Regulations on banks and real estate agents and on everyone else - except casino owners - are less troublesome here than in other states, which takes a burden off everybody, but which is especially attractive to people trying to spend and invest dirty cash

"Just two ordinary people against them?"

I'm pretty sure we can find a reporter who'll go with that much and write a story about how a bunch of nameless, faceless people want to keep us from reopening Danny's grave, how maybe something truly strange lies at the bottom of the Sierra tragedy

Then a lot of people are going to be pushing for an exhumation of all those boys

Most of the questions were concerned with how much Tina knew about the true nature of the Sierra accident, how much she had told Elliot, how much she had told Michael, and with how many people she had discussed it

But if the other people had a chance to view the bodies, if none of them has had any reason to entertain doubts like yours, then they're all just finally learning to cope with the tragedy

Killing all those people and trying to fake an accident - that was a whole lot riskier than letting the kids come back with their half-baked stories about seeing something peculiar in the mountains."

The long wing of the diner was nearly full of customers now; about forty people were eating dinner or waiting to be served

She wanted to be one of these fortunate people

None of these people had to worry about professional killers, bizarre conspiracies, gas-company men who were not gas-company men, silencer-equipped pistols, exhumations

She felt as if a vast unbridgeable gap separated her from people like these, and she wondered if she ever again would be as relaxed and free from care as these diners were at this moment.

Only a moment ago, she had envied these people for the very ordinariness of their lives

They were just ordinary people in a roadside restaurant, having dinner.

Some people winced and put their hands over their ears.

"This secret police force, these people behind Kennebeck..

And the people who're holding him don't know he's doing it! They're blaming the leak on one of their own, on someone from Project Pandora."

I know some pretty damn intelligent people believe in ESP, but I don't

They came to a standstill at a cluster of laughing people

Harry had been surprised to discover that not all of the people in the espionage business shared his ultraconservative political views

"Can't you see that? You should use your people more judiciously

"Our people in Reno will have to move fast, but they'll manage

Evidently the people in the funeral home were not aware that their man outside had been eliminated

After encountering so many people with so little respect for human life, they needed to convince themselves that they really were more than dust in the wind.

"Listen, if I could get my hands on the people who're trying to keep us from finding Danny, I wouldn't have any compunctions about killing them

And George Lincoln Stanhope Alexander, who was an heir to both the fortune of the Pennsylvania Alexander's and to the enormous wealth of the Delaware Stanhopes, had absolutely no patience with people who were penurious.

But he was also frustrated because so few people were aware of his great importance.

At least half of the people who worked for it did not even realize it existed; some thought they were employed by the FBI; others were sure they worked for the CIA; and still others believed that they were in the hire of various branches of the Treasury Department, including the Secret Service

None of those people could compromise the Network

Only bureau chiefs, their immediate staffs, station chiefs in major cities, and senior field officers who had proved themselves and their loyalty - only those people knew the true nature of their employers and their work

Lunatics and just plain irrational people didn't intentionally try to amuse.

"We're up against some damn dangerous people

Earlier this morning it had occurred to Elliot that he and Tina were the only people who knew that the official story of the Sierras accident was a lie

"Can a couple of people like us really have a chance of winning when we're up against something as big as the government itself?"

Who were these two people? Why weren't they hiding in a dark corner somewhere? Why weren't they scared witless? Christina Evans was only an ordinary woman

"The security people must be watching us on video monitors right now," Elliot said glumly.

"Doesn't look like there's a lot of people inside," Tina said

Maybe a few of the top people come and go regularly by helicopter

"Who are you people?"

"And the fewer people we encounter-"

Danny seemed able to work miracles with inanimate objects, but he could not control people, like the guard upstairs, whom Elliot had been forced to shoot

And a lot of people around him, a lot of people protecting him, people in research and people in charge of project security - they're also megalomaniacs

Lots of people out there in the rest of the world - they believe in chemical and biological warfare

The problem is that some flaky people are attracted to this kind of work because of the secrecy and because you really do get a sense of power from designing weapons that can kill millions of people

As long as you're the only ones outside of here who know what happened, you're marked people."

There are a lot of people here who have some sense of social responsibility about this work

Was it one of the security people, or was it someone on the medical staff? I'd like to think it was a doctor, one of my own, who finally did the right thing."

And for sure, if the people in this installation got the idea that Danny's newfound psychic abilities were a result of the parietal spot caused by his repeated exposure to Wuhan-400, they would want to test him, poke and probe at him

In the room near the elevators, people were still talking and laughing, but no one stepped into the corridor.

"But they're not good people, baby

As they drove off the plateau, around the burning wreckage of the helicopter, Danny said, "They were bad people

They were real bad people."

But when the South lost the war, and there was equality for black people, Uncle Elias left America

March 7th 1869 Sent the pips to three people, Brown, Robinson and Williams.

'There'll be a lot of people in the streets, so I think that you'll be all right

They wanted to stop equality for black people and to kill anyone who didn't agree with them

She never tried to defend herself and even got quite annoyed when she realized people thought she was mad

Six people from the Air Ministry came to the laboratory and went through all his papers

Have you asked the Air Ministry people? They knew all about the work.'

It would mean the end of all ways of moving things from one place to another - not only things but also people

I now expected that my husband would invite the Air Ministry people to come down, but he went on working.

Natalie sees some people in the street

Many people stop and listen

There is a path from Old Hall, where she lives, to our garden gate, so most people coming from there come to the study window instead of going along the road to the front door.

'We do sometimes trust people too easily.'

The excitement rose, then Miss Marple said, 'Bad girl! If you make things up, people often believe them, and sometimes that leads to problems.'

There were very few people that evening at the Wednesday church service, but afterwards, as I left, I saw a woman standing and looking up at one of our coloured-glass windows

The two people were Lawrence Redding, and Mrs Protheroe.

I told him that people had been saying that since the beginning of time, and a strange little smile touched his lips

If he stayed, people would start to talk about his relationship with Anne

I went home, had lunch, and went out again to visit some people

'But they are the only two people who had a reason for killing Protheroe.'

I can think of at least seven people who might be very happy to have Colonel Protheroe dead.'

'Seven people? In St Mary Mead?' Melchett said.

It's what people call intuition

'Oh! Crowds of people

'So, that is three people who heard the shot,' said Inspector Slack

When you get to my age, you will find that you like to think the best of people.'

If you are alone and do not want to see people - well, the only thing to do is to let them ring.'

'He writes very clever books, though in real life people are not nearly so unpleasant as he makes his characters

'How many people, Mr Clement, knew that Colonel Protheroe was coming to see you that evening?' the coroner asked.

Several people must have heard, as he spoke very loudly.'

His books are about unpleasant people with very boring lives.

Because otherwise people will say that, I ran away - because I felt guilty

'But you know,' she sat up, 'unless the real murderer is found people will always think it was Lawrence

And a lot of people would know about it

But I'm sorry for a lot of people I don't like

'Miss Marple, who do you suspect? You said that there were seven people.'

And I began to think of other people who might want Colonel Protheroe dead.'

For the next ten minutes, they were careful to be seen by people in the village, then at last Mr Redding went back to the vicarage

With great confidence, people travelled around this world and believed that they were in control of their lives

At most, people believed there might be living things on Mars, perhaps less developed than us and ready to welcome visitors

But people are so blind that no writer, before the end of the nineteenth century, suggested that much more intelligent life had developed there than on Earth

We, the people who live on this Earth, must seem to them at least as different and less developed as monkeys are to us

And before we criticize them for thinking in this way, we must remember how badly we have treated not only the animals of this planet, but also other people

It seems to me almost unbelievably wonderful that, with that danger threatening us, people could continue their ordinary business as they did

There were lights in the upper windows of the houses as people went to bed

Many people in that part of England saw it, and simply thought that another meteorite had fallen

He met some local people who were up early, but the story he told and his appearance were so wild that they would not listen to him

When I got there, I found a little crowd of perhaps twenty people surrounding the great pit in which the cylinder lay

There was now a large crowd of people standing around

He wanted a fence put up to keep the people back.

Groups of people were hurrying from the direction of Woking

The crowd around the pit had increased to a couple of hundred people, perhaps

I saw shock changing to horror on the faces of the people around me, and there was a general movement backwards

I found myself alone, and saw the people on the other side of the pit running off

The common was now covered with small groups of people

The crowd around the pit seemed to grow as new people arrived

This gave people confidence and as darkness fell, a slow, uncertain movement on the common began

As the group moved forwards, a number of other people started to follow them.

They may stay in the pit and kill people who come near them, as they cannot get out of it

Many people had heard of the cylinder, of course, and talked about it, but it did not have as much effect as a political event.

Even within the five - kilometer circle, most people were unaffected

I have already described the behaviour of the people to whom I spoke

All over the district people were eating dinner

Men were gardening, children were being put to bed, young people were out walking together.

One or two adventurous people went into the darkness and crawled quite near the Martians, but they never returned, because now and again a light-ray swept round the common, and the Heat-Ray was ready to follow

Surprised people were coming out of their houses.

He was going from house to house, warning people to leave.

There were a few people still alive there; most of them were very frightened, and many of them had been burnt

'You are the first people I've seen coming this way this morning,' the officer said

It seemed like any other Sunday - except for the empty houses, and the other ones where people were packing.

Soldiers were telling people to leave and helping them to load carts in the main street

Many people, though, did not realize how serious the situation was

Here we found an excited crowd of people

There was no great fear at this time, but already there were more people than all the boats could carry across the Thames

Every now and then people looked nervously at the fields beyond Chertsey, but everything there was still.

I could hear people jumping off boats into the water.

I saw people struggling towards the shore and heard their screaming and shouting faintly above the noise of the Martian's fall.

The Martians, alarmed by the approach of a crowd, had killed a number of people with a quick-firing gun, the story said

In fact, the people in charge of the railway did not clearly know at that time

Few people connected the problem with the Martians.

But most people in London do not read Sunday papers.

But there was almost nothing to tell people until the government announced that the people of Walton and Weybridge, and all chat district, were pouring along the roads towards London.

Quite a number of people who had been expecting friends to arrive by train were standing at the station

'There are lots of people coming into Kingston in carts and things, with boxes and cases,' he said

On Waterloo Bridge a number of people were watching an odd brown liquid that came down the river from time to time

All down Wellington Street people could be seen reading the paper

Certainly people were excited by the news, whatever they had felt before

There was a man with his wife and two boys and some pieces of furniture in a cart, and close behind him came another one with five or six well-dressed people and some boxes and cases

The faces of the people showed that they were very tired

My brother turned towards Victoria station, and met a number of people like these

Some of the refugees were exchanging news with the people on the buses

There were one or two carts with refugees going along Oxford Street, but the news was spreading so slowly that Regent Street and Portland Place were full of people taking their usual Sunday night walk

Up and down the street other windows were opening and people were shouting questions

All around him - in the rooms below, in the houses on each side and across the road, and all across London - people were rubbing their eyes and opening windows to stare out and ask questions, and getting dressed quickly as the first breath of the coming storm of fear blew through the streets

Every moment brought more and more fast-moving people in vehicles.

'Black Smoke!' he heard people shouting

All of the six million people who lived in the great city were beginning to move

The bells of the local church rang loudly, a carelessly-driven cart smashed, and people screamed and swore

He heard people running in the rooms, and up and down the stairs behind him

They only used the Heat-Ray from time to time that night, either because they had a limited supply of material for its production or because they did not want to destroy the country, but only to defeat its people

You can see the quiet expectation, the officers watching, the gunners waiting with their horses, the groups of local people standing as near as they were allowed, the ambulances and hospital tents with the burnt and wounded from Weybridge

It told the people of London that they had to run away.

By three the crowds were so large around the stations that people were being pushed over and walked on

The police who had been sent to direct the traffic, exhausted and angry, were fighting with the people they had been called out to protect.

And as time passed and the engine drivers and firemen refused to return to London, the people turned in growing crowds away from the stations and onto the roads running north

Another cloud came over Ealing, and surrounded a little island of people on Castle Hill, alive but unable to escape.

As they got closer they saw- more and more people, all tired and dirty

The main road was a boiling stream of people, a river of human beings rushing to the north

There were people of every class and profession, but they were all dusty; their skins were dry, their lips black and cracked, and all of them looked very afraid.

In the evening many people came hurrying along the road near their stopping-place, escaping from unknown dangers and going in the direction from which my brother had come.

None of the wars of history had such an effect - six million people, moving without weapons or food or any real sense of direction

It is possible that many people stayed in their houses through Monday morning

Many became stuck together under Tower Bridge, and the sailors had to fight against people who tried to get on from the riverside

A number of people now, like my brother, were moving to the east, and some were even so desperate that they turned back towards London to get food

These were mainly people from the northern suburbs who had only heard of, but not seen, the Black Smoke.

He was told that the Midland Railway Company had started running trains again, and was taking people north from St Albans

There was also a notice which said that within twenty-four hours bread would be given to the hungry people

On Wednesday my brother and the two women reached Chelmsford, and there a number of people, calling themselves the Council of Public Safety, took their horse for food

After the sailors could no longer come up the Thames, they went to the towns on the Essex coast to take people onto their ships

There were signs of people in the next house on Sunday evening - a face at a window and moving lights, and later the closing of a door

But I do not know who these people were or what happened to them

As we passed other small towns, we found them unaffected by either Heat-Ray or Black Smoke, and there were some people alive, although none could give us news

Then suddenly, as we walked north, we saw some people running

We were very different people with different habits of thought and action, and those differences increased because we were living together in this dangerous place

Far away I saw a thin cat walking along a wall, but there was no sign of people.

'Well, people who intend to escape them must get ready

All these - the sort of people that lived in these houses, all those little office workers that used to live down that way - they'd be no good

'Well, we have to invent a life where people can live and have children, and be safe enough to bring the children up

You begin to see? And we'll get some people together - strong, clean-minded men

'The people who stay will obey orders

In South Kensington the streets were clear of dead people and of black powder, and near there I first heard the howling

These germs of disease have killed people and animals since the beginning of time, but over these many years we have developed the ability to fight against them

And as I looked at it, and realized that the shadows had been rolled back, and that people might still live in its streets, and that this dear city of mine might be once more alive and powerful again, I felt such emotion that I was very close to tears.

Then I found myself in a house of kind people, who had found me

They have told me since that I was singing a crazy song about 'The Last Man Left Alive! The Last Man Left Alive!' Although they were troubled with their own affairs, these people were very helpful to me

Already they were busy with returning people; in places there were even shops open

But then I noticed how ill the people looked and how many of them still wore old and dirty clothes

At Waterloo I found that free trains were taking people to their homes

The first rush had already ended and there were few people on the train

A number of people were standing by it, and some soldiers were busy in the middle

The war has broadened people's minds enormously

I saw the houses stretching away and disappearing into the smoke and mist, people walking up and down between the flower-beds, and the sightseers around the Martian machine that still stands there

'Anyway, my friend and I have heard many strange secrets in this room, and we have had the fortune to help many people

'That night I did not tell my wife about the strange face and the rude woman, but I did tell her that people were now living in the cottage.

Who are these people?"

'Now, go back to Norbury, and when you see that those people have returned to the cottage, call us

After tea we received a message from Mr Munro saying, 'There are people in the house.'

Unfortunately, our only child took after his people rather than mine

'We'll find a nice, quiet place, with no people.'

I need two people to hold the chair

He told us about the people killed on the river, and about the bad weather report.

A crowd of people was watching us

In the maze, they met some people who had been there for forty-five minutes

Harris said, 'Follow me! I'm going out in ten minutes.' The people thanked him and started following him

Other people began following Harris, too

Harris got lost! The people were angry with him

He let the people out

It's such a beautiful picture - the river, the trees, the flowers and the people, in their colourful clothes.

'Water! Water makes people ill!' he said

Once people try my scrambled eggs, they always want them.'

But, when we heard the bad words that came from the other boat, we knew we were near people

We also knew that those people were not happy.

You and J are very lazy people.'

Some people sit and fish there all day

I can't understand people who are afraid of a little rain.'

Some people laughed.

A few people walked past under their umbrellas.

Look at all these people who are running after you,' said Connie.

'Is that so? Mm, I am glad because people always notice things.'

If there is anything people in this country have, it is a big mouth.'

'Hello, hello, my people!' And she goes straight to the baby

'Listen, people, I brought a friend to meet you

I - Walter Hartright, drawing teacher - have asked several people to contribute narratives

After that, I thought about Walter often, especially on the nights when Percival left me alone and went to parties with the people from the opera house.'

A crowd of people had gathered

He then told me what he had done to the register and he explained what the law does to people who commit that crime

The aim of the Brotherhood is to stop the abuse of power and to maintain the rights of the people

Members murder people who abuse their power

Over the year of my investigation, I had asked the people involved to provide the narratives that have been presented here

The people who had been at the funeral were all invited to come and see that Laura, Lady Glyde, was in fact alive and well

In the past, a lot of people believed that women were not as intelligent as men

In some places, people still have these ideas

In the 18th and 19th centuries, people started to think, write and talk about women's education more and more.

One of the most important people of this time was Mary Wollstonecraft

In 2011, a group of people wanted to get money for a statue of Mary in London, so they put a picture of her on the Houses of Parliament

In 2018, more people in politics and theatre joined the group to ask for a statue of Mary Wollstonecraft.

Human rights mean that people are not put into prison because they do not agree with the government, and that people are not hurt when they are in prison

She is famous because she did not stand up! When Rosa was a young woman, in many places in the USA, black people - who were called "coloureds" at that time - and white people could not sit together.

One of the places where black people and white people did not mix was on buses

She sat in a seat for "coloured" people

White people sat in the front of the line, and black people had to sit behind it

On this day in December, the bus began to fill with white people

After a short time, the bus was full, and the driver noticed that some white people were standing up

The driver stopped the bus and asked four black people to stand up

This meant that the white people could sit down.

Three of the black people on Rosa's bus stood up, but Rosa did not

What Rosa did on that bus was very important in the fight for black people's rights in the USA.

She helped many people in prison, and she stopped them from getting hurt by the prison workers

Rigoberta Menchu is also an important woman who fought for the rights of Indigenous people in her country

While in Mexico, Rigoberta continued to fight for Indigenous people's rights in Guatemala

In Britain, politicians, the newspapers and the people were very surprised by what the suffragettes did

Some people did not like what the suffragettes were doing

In 1999, Time magazine called Emmeline Pankhurst one of the 100 most important people of the 20th century

That goal is to achieve equality between all people

After studying English Literature at the University of Cambridge, Laura looked after other people's children

Today some people say that women have won the fight for equality

When women started to do paid work in the 19th and early 20th centuries, almost half of it was cleaning and cooking in other people's homes

But people thought that this work was not important, and women had to leave their jobs when they married.

In 2012, she was named in the Time 100, a list of the 100 most important people in the world

Women are 50 percent of the world's people, and, when they cannot work, it is a big problem for the world.

Many people believe that Rosalind, like Lise Meitner, did not get the Nobel Prize because she was a woman.

She loves answering questions from people who are not astronomers.

She wanted to help other people

Sirimavo came from a rich family, but she always wanted to help the poor people in her country.

Also, politics has always been a career for men, and when women become politicians, some people say bad things to them.

Half of the people who live in the world are women

Many people hope that, in the future, 50 percent of the world's governments will be women.

She was chosen from 400 people to pilot Vostok 6 on 16th June 1963

But only twenty-two women played in those Games, out of the 997 people from nineteen countries

But in 1948 she was thirty years old, and many people thought that she was too old to be the best

Other people said she had to look after her husband and her children! But Fanny started the 1948 Games by winning two races - one of them was the 100 metres

There were 30,492 people at the match

Also, about 50 million people watched it on TV in the USA, and about 90 million in thirty-seven other countries watched it

The goals are there to stop people from being poor, to look after the Earth and to stop war

But the big problem in any country is changing the way people think about child marriage - and that takes time.

Today, women in many different countries are using MeToo every day to tell people about the assault and harassment they get

He punishes dishonest people," says an old man.

Many people say good things about him," says Don Diego.

He punishes only bad people

I only punish corrupt people

There are many people in front of the Presidio that morning

''This is how I punish dishonest people,'' says Zorro.

In California we have corrupt political men, cruel magistrates and dishonest people

They are honest people

"Yes! Yes!" the people say.
