Famous quotes containing the word personal:
“Let no guilty man escape, if it can be avoided.... No personal considerations should stand in the way of performing a duty.”

“I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality. I am weary of personality.... Let us be easy and impersonal, not forever fingering over our own souls, and the souls of our acquaintances, but trying to create a new life, a new common life, a new complete tree of life from the roots that are within us.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Glamour cannot exist without personal social envy being a common and widespread emotion.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
