Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“... goodness is of a modest nature, easily discouraged, and when much elbowed in early life by unabashed vices, is apt to retire into extreme privacy, so that it is more easily believed in by those who construct a selfish old gentleman theoretically, than by those who form the narrower judgments based on his personal acquaintance.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“And you tell me, friends, that there is no disputing taste and tasting? But all life is a dispute over taste and tasting!”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
