Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “Wilson adventured for the whole of the human race. Not as a servant, but as a champion. So pure was this motive, so unflecked with anything that his worst enemies could find, except the mildest and most excusable, a personal vanity, practically the minimum to be human, that in a sense his adventure is that of humanity itself. In Wilson, the whole of mankind breaks camp, sets out from home and wrestles with the universe and its gods.”
    —William Bolitho (1890–1930)

    “The ultimate umpire of all things in life is—Fact.”
    —Agnes C. Laut (1871–1936)
