Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    I am in no boastful mood. I shall not do more than I can, and I shall do all I can to save the government, which is my sworn duty as well as my personal inclination. I shall do nothing in malice. What I deal with is too vast for malicious dealing.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    I’ll bet your father spent the first year of your life throwing rocks at the stork.
