Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    It is very certain that each man carries in his eye the exact indication of his rank in the immense scale of men, and we are always learning to read it. A complete man should need no auxiliaries to his personal presence.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Make me thy Loome: thy Grace the warfe therein,
    My duties Woofe, and let thy word winde Quills.
    The shuttle shoot. Cut off the ends my sins.
    Thy Ordinances make my fulling mills,
    My Life thy Web: and cloath me all my dayes
    With this Gold-web of Glory to thy praise.
    Edward Taylor (1645–1729)
