My mum brought me up to think that personal happiness is more important than your family.

Each person is living for himself his own happiness is all he can ever personally feel.

It is the personality of the mistress that the home expresses. Men are forever guests in our homes no matter how much happiness they may find there.

If all our happiness is bound up entirely in our personal circumstances it is difficult not to demand of life more than it has to give.

People let their own hang-ups become the obstacles between them and personal happiness.

I really think that there was a great advantage in many ways to being a woman. I think we are a lot better at personal relationships and then have the capability obviously of telling it like it is when it's necessary.

You can be fat and love yourself. You can be fat and have a great damn personality. You can be fat and sew your own clothes. But you can't be fat and healthy.

Life is not an easy matter... You cannot live through it without falling into frustration and cynicism unless you have before you a great idea which raises you above personal misery above weakness above all kinds of perfidy and baseness.

My personal advice is to go to school first and get a liberal arts education and then if you want to pursue acting go to graduate school.

In the book I define conservatism as I believe it is fit upon four categories of principle: respect for The Constitution respect for life less government and personal responsibility.

As far as your personal goals are and what you actually want to do with your life it should never have to do with the government. You should never depend on the government for your retirement your financial security for anything.

In addition to their power over government based on government financing and personal influence bankers could steer governments in ways they wished them to go by other pressures.

I am very much opposed to abortion personally. But I don't think it is the government's rule.

Americans want government that is leaner more efficient and less intrusive into their personal lives.

A world in which government is burdened by historic debt philanthropy has limited resources and the private sector is only interested in its own personal gain is simply unsustainable.

There is something fundamentally unfair about a government that takes away so much of people's money power and personal control while telling them that life will be better as a result.

As far as your personal goals are and what you actually want to do with your life it should never have to do with the government. You should never depend on the government for your retirement your financial security for anything. If you do you're screwed.

Under the doctrine of separation of powers the manner in which the president personally exercises his assigned executive powers is not subject to questioning by another branch of government.

As Americans we don't see the role of government as guaranteeing outcomes but allowing free men and women to flourish based on their own vision their hard work and their personal responsibility.

The impersonal hand of government can never replace the helping hand of a neighbor.

On one of the most personal matters of our lives our health care President Obama would turn decision making over to government bureaucrats. He forced through Obama-care and I will repeal it.

It may be laid down as a primary position and the basis of our system that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a Free Government owes not only a proportion of his property but even of his personal services to the defense of it.

If you like small government you need to work hard at having a strong national defense that is not so militant. Personal liberty is the purpose of government to protect liberty - not to run your personal life not to run the economy and not to pretend that we can tell the world how they ought to live.

It is also true that one can write nothing readable unless one constantly struggles to efface one's own personality. Good prose is like a windowpane.
