Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Samuel Sewall, in a world of wigs,
    Flouted opinion in his personal hair;
    For foppery he gave not any figs,
    But in his right and honor took the air.
    Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)

    Mortals are easily tempted to pinch the life out of their neighbour’s buzzing glory, and think that such killing is no murder.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
