Famous quotes containing the word personal:

    Let no guilty man escape, if it can be avoided.... No personal considerations should stand in the way of performing a duty.
    Ulysses S. Grant (1822–1885)

    Life is unnecessarily long. Moments of insight, of fine personal relation, a smile, a glance,—what ample borrowers of eternity they are!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Personality and mind, like moustaches, belong to a certain age. They are a deformity in a child.... Leave his sensibilities, his emotions, his spirit, and his mind severely alone. There is the devil in mothers, that they must provoke personal ... response from their infants.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
