Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Of the modes of persuasion furnished by the spoken word there are three kinds. The first kind depends on the personal character of the speaker; the second on putting the audience into a certain frame of mind; the third on the proof, provided by the words of the speech itself.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    Those who prepared for all the emergencies of life beforehand may equip themselves at the expense of joy.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
