Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Take two kids in competition for their parents’ love and attention. Add to that the envy that one child feels for the accomplishments of the other; the resentment that each child feels for the privileges of the other; the personal frustrations that they don’t dare let out on anyone else but a brother or sister, and it’s not hard to understand why in families across the land, the sibling relationship contains enough emotional dynamite to set off rounds of daily explosions.
    Adele Faber (20th century)

    Nothing in life possesses value except the degree of power—assuming that life itself is the will to power.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
