Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.”
    —John Updike (b. 1932)

    “The destructive character lives from the feeling, not that life is worth living, but that suicide is not worth the trouble.”
    —Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
