Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:

    Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters “woman’s peculiar sphere,” her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.
    Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    Impartial. Unable to perceive any promise of personal advantage from espousing either side of a controversy.
    Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    The time comes when each one of us has to give up as illusions the expectations which, in his youth, he pinned upon his fellow- men, and when he may learn how much difficulty and pain has been added to his life by their ill-will.
    Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
