Famous quotes containing the word personal:
“Wilson adventured for the whole of the human race. Not as a servant, but as a champion. So pure was this motive, so unflecked with anything that his worst enemies could find, except the mildest and most excusable, a personal vanity, practically the minimum to be human, that in a sense his adventure is that of humanity itself.

—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
“There cannot be a personal God without a pessimistic religion. As soon as there is a personal God he is a disappointing God.”
