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

    “I am what is mine. Personality is the original personal property.”
    —Norman O. Brown (b. 1913)

    “Come, my Way, my Truth, my Life:
    Such a Way as gives us breath:
    Such a Truth as ends all strife:
    Such a Life as killeth death.”
    —George Hebert (1593–1633)

    “If you complain of neglect of education in sons, what shall I say with regard to daughters, who every day experience the want of it? With regard to the education of my own children, I find myself soon out of my depth, destitute and deficient in every part of education. I most sincerely wish ... that our new Constitution may be distinguished for encouraging learning and virtue. If we mean to have heroes, statesmen, and philosophers, we should have learned women.”
    —Abigail Adams (1744–1818)
