Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    ... goodness is of a modest nature, easily discouraged, and when much elbowed in early life by unabashed vices, is apt to retire into extreme privacy, so that it is more easily believed in by those who construct a selfish old gentleman theoretically, than by those who form the narrower judgments based on his personal acquaintance.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    This life is a hospital in which each patient is obsessed with the desire to change beds.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
