Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Fine art is the subtlest, the most seductive, the most effective instrument of moral propaganda in the world, excepting only the example of personal conduct; and I waive even this exception in favor of the art of the stage, because it works by exhibiting examples of personal conduct made intelligible and moving to crowds of unobservant unreflecting people to whom real life means nothing.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    she bit the towel and called on God
    and I saw her life stretch out . . .
    I saw her torn in childbirth,
    and I saw her, at that moment,
    in her own death and I knew that she
    knew.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
