Famous quotes containing the words private life, private and/or life:

    As in private life one differentiates between what a man thinks and says of himself and what he really is and does, so in historical struggles one must still more distinguish the language and the imaginary aspirations of parties from their real organism and their real interests, their conception of themselves from their reality.

    Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)
