Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Personality and mind, like moustaches, belong to a certain age. They are a deformity in a child.... Leave his sensibilities, his emotions, his spirit, and his mind severely alone. There is the devil in mothers, that they must provoke personal ... response from their infants.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “One thought in agony of strife
    The bravest would have by for friend,
    The memory that he chose the life ...”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
