Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or status:
“Nothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like individual responsibility. Nothing adds such dignity to character as the recognition of one’s self-sovereignty; the right to an equal place, everywhere conceded—a place earned by personal merit, not an artificial attainment by inheritance, wealth, family and position.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“As a work of art it has the same status as a long conversation between two not very bright drunks.”
—Clive James (b. 1939)
