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

    “The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To “see the light” too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    “I began to expand my personal service in the church, and to search more diligently for a closer relationship with God among my different business, professional and political interests.”
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    “Had I but died an hour before this chance,
    I had lived a blessed time; for from this instant
    There’s nothing serious in mortality.
    All is but toys; renown and grace is dead,
    The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees
    Is left this vault to brag of.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
