Personal Sin

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or sin:

“Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters “woman’s peculiar sphere,” her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.”
—Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

“Confusion of sign and object is original sin coeval with the word.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
