Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Oh, what a catastrophe for man when he cut himself off from the rhythm of the year, from his unison with the sun and the earth. Oh, what a catastrophe, what a maiming of love when it was a personal, merely personal feeling, taken away from the rising and the setting of the sun, and cut off from the magic connection of the solstice and the equinox!
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    But the divinest poem, or the life of a great man, is the severest satire.... The greater the genius, the keener the edge of the satire.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
