Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Hostesses who entertain much must make up their parties as ministers make up their cabinets, on grounds other than personal liking.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    Your faith an’ trouth yese never get
    Nor our trew Love shall never twain
    Till ye come within my bower
    And kiss me both cheek and chin.

    My mouth it is full cold, Margret,
    It has the smell now of the ground;
    An’ if I kiss thy com’ly mouth
    Thy life days will not be long.
    Unknown. Clerk Saunders (l. 109–116)
