Personal Statements

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or statements:

“I know no personal cause to spurn at him,
But for the general: he would be crowned.
How that might change his nature, there’s the question.”

“Is it true or false that Belfast is north of London? That the galaxy is the shape of a fried egg? That Beethoven was a drunkard? That Wellington won the battle of Waterloo? There are various degrees and dimensions of success in making statements: the statements fit the facts always more or less loosely, in different ways on different occasions for different intents and purposes.”
