Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.”
—Lewis Mumford (18951990)
“Yes, as my swift days near their goal,
Tis all that I implore
Through life and death, a chainless soul,
With courage to endure!”
—Emily Brontë (18181848)
