Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “The pursuit of Fashion is the attempt of the middle class to co-opt tragedy. In adopting the clothing, speech, and personal habits of those in straitened, dangerous, or pitiful circumstances, the middle class seeks to have what it feels to be the exigent and nonequivocal experiences had by those it emulates.”
    —David Mamet (b. 1947)

    “They think how one life hums, revolves and toils,
    One cog in a golden singing hive:”
    —Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
