Personal Stories

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or stories:

    The personal right to acquire property, which is a natural right, gives to property, when acquired, a right to protection, as a social right.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    Writing ought either to be the manufacture of stories for which there is a market demand—a business as safe and commendable as making soap or breakfast foods—or it should be an art, which is always a search for something for which there is no market demand, something new and untried, where the values are intrinsic and have nothing to do with standardized values.
    Willa Cather (1876–1947)
