Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.
    Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)

    Of a life of luxury the fruit is luxury, whether in agriculture, or commerce, or literature, or art.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
