Personal Life
"Jim Goad may in fact be the bad man his wife, his girlfriend, the State of Oregon and numerous others said he is, but he's also a man of principle. You may disagree with his ethics, they may even repulse you, but you can't deny that he's thought them through, can articulate them with unusual clarity, tries to live by them more faithfully than you live by yours and if you debated him on them he'd probably kick your ass. Figuratively speaking, of course."
—John Strausbaugh, 2002

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“Nothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like individual responsibility. Nothing adds such dignity to character as the recognition of one’s self-sovereignty; the right to an equal place, everywhere conceded—a place earned by personal merit, not an artificial attainment by inheritance, wealth, family and position.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“Our life runs down in sending up the clock.
The brook runs down in sending up our life.
The sun runs down in sending up the brook.
And there is something sending up the sun.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
