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

—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“The pursuit of Fashion is the attempt of the middle class to co-opt tragedy. In adopting the clothing, speech, and personal habits of those in straitened, dangerous, or pitiful circumstances, the middle class seeks to have what it feels to be the exigent and nonequivocal experiences had by those it emulates.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“There is probably not more than one hundred dollars in cash in circulation today.

—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
