Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Of the modes of persuasion furnished by the spoken word there are three kinds. The first kind depends on the personal character of the speaker; the second on putting the audience into a certain frame of mind; the third on the proof, provided by the words of the speech itself.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    Sin their conception, their birth weeping,
    Their life a general mist of error,
    Their death a hideous storm of terror.
    John Webster (c. 1580–1638)
