Famous quotes containing the words personal, life and/or legacy:

    Picture the prince, such as most of them are today: a man ignorant of the law, well-nigh an enemy to his people’s advantage, while intent on his personal convenience, a dedicated voluptuary, a hater of learning, freedom and truth, without a thought for the interests of his country, and measuring everything in terms of his own profit and desires.
    Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)

    No self in the mass: the braver being,
    The body that could never be wounded,
    The life that never would end, no matter
    Who died, the being that was an abstraction.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    What is popularly called fame is nothing but an empty name and a legacy from paganism.
    Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
