Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “In the weakness of one kind of authority, and in the fluctuation of all, the officers of an army will remain for some time mutinous and full of faction, until some popular general, who understands the art of conciliating the soldiery, and who possesses the true spirit of command, shall draw the eyes of all men upon himself. Armies will obey him on his personal account. There is no other way of securing military obedience in this state of things.”
    —Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    “There is no event greater in life than the appearance of new persons about our hearth, except it be the progress of the character which draws them.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
