Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“The personal things should be left out of platforms at conventions .... You can argue yourself blue in the face, and you’re not going to change each other’s minds. It’s a waste of your time and my time.”

“Death or life or life or death
Death is life and life is death

But if you understand or if you dont
That’s nothing to me and nothing to you
We all gotta do what we gotta do”
