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

    “Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters “woman’s peculiar sphere,” her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.”
    —Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    “It is ... pathetic to observe the complete lack of imagination on the part of certain employers and men and women of the upper-income levels, equally devoid of experience, equally glib with their criticism ... directed against workers, labor leaders, and other villains and personal devils who are the objects of their dart-throwing. Who doesn’t know the wealthy woman who fulminates against the “idle” workers who just won’t get out and hunt jobs?”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    “He’s indestructible. Frankenstein’s creation is man’s challenge to the laws of life and death.”
    —Edward T. Lowe, and Erle C. Kenton. Dr. Edelman (Onslow Stevens)
