Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “Persecution was at least a sign of personal interest. Tolerance is composed of nine parts of apathy to one of brotherly love.”
    —Frank Moore Colby (1865–1925)

    “Yet come to me in dreams that I may live
    My very life again though cold in death:
    Come back to me in dreams, that I may give
    Pulse for pulse, breath for breath:
    Speak low, lean low,
    As long ago, my love, how long ago.”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
