Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “The whole effort of a sincere man is to erect his personal impressions into laws.”
    —Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)

    “There are nowadays professors of philosophy, but not philosophers. Yet it is admirable to profess because it was once admirable to live. To be a philosopher is not merely to have subtle thoughts, nor even to found a school, but so to love wisdom as to live according to its dictates, a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity, and trust. It is to solve some of the problems of life, not only theoretically, but practically.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
