Famous quotes containing the word personal:

    “I am what is mine. Personality is the original personal property.”
    —Norman O. Brown (b. 1913)

    “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)

    “It is very certain that each man carries in his eye the exact indication of his rank in the immense scale of men, and we are always learning to read it. A complete man should need no auxiliaries to his personal presence.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
