Famous quotes related to private life:

    There is no private life which has not been determined by a wider public life.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    What, really, is wanted from a neighborhood? Convenience, certainly, an absence of major aggravation, to be sure. But perhaps most of all, ideally, what is wanted is a comfortable background, a breathing space of intermission between the intensities of private life and the calculations of public life.
    Joseph Epstein (b. 1937)
