Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “Samuel Sewall, in a world of wigs,
    Flouted opinion in his personal hair;
    For foppery he gave not any figs,
    But in his right and honor took the air.”
    —Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)

    “Yet come to me in dreams that I may live
    My very life again though cold in death:
    Come back to me in dreams, that I may give
    Pulse for pulse, breath for breath:
    Speak low, lean low,
    As long ago, my love, how long ago.”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
