The American way was for commerce personal relationships and religion to be voluntary. No one was forced to participate in something he didn't want.

The Christian use of religion as a personal love affair both shocked me and attracted me.

My political ideas and things like that even my religion I try to keep close to me because it's a personal thing and I don't shove it down people's throats. I don't condemn any artist that wants to do that like the Baldwins. That's their choice. But in my world I'm just an entertainer.

Beside all this I think there was something personal being Muslim myself who lived in the west I felt that it was my obligation my duty to tell the truth about Islam. It is a religion that has a 700 million following yet it's so little known about it which surprised me.

I've found a more personal pagan kind of religion to satisfy the spiritual side of things.

Personally I don't choose any particular religion or symbol or group of words or teachings to define me. That's between me and the most high. You know my higher self. The Creator.

My relationship with 'Pollyanna' is a very personal one because Pollyanna got me through my childhood.

I have a much wider freer view about spirituality. I feel that people need to pursue it on their own personally. You know let it be theirs - a personal relationship with their soul or their God or with their church.

A conversation goes sometimes into personal things and that's nicer. You look to each other and you have a different picture you get into a relationship.

Then of course there are those sad occasions when a poet or a writer has not grown and one has to let them go because they're just not making headway. But we have a very clear personal relationship with the authors.

If it is true that we have a personal relationship with God then that's enough for me.

I personally don't believe people really grow. They just learn stuff when they were a kid and hold on to it and that affects every relationship they have.

And I have the support of the writers: I have a great relationship with the creative team and they have a good hold of my character and my personality and they come up with some great stuff and I'm forever trying to change it up keep it fresh.

I always want to have a personal relationship with everybody that works for me.

Mr. Geithner is an excellent minister. We have a good personal relationship.

It's grown into a personal relationship yeah. I'm crazy about Jerry. I think he's a unique character.

All true meaning resides in the personal relationship to a phenomenon what it means to you.

There's an ethic that says: 'You don't run off to the church for the sacraments of salvation you establish a personal relationship with God. You don't run off to the courts for justice you settle it yourself. You don't run off to labor unions to sort out your work relations you can take this job and shove it if you don't like what you're doing.'

I do not want a personal relationship with my fans. Or to do anything that encourages them to think they have one with me. They can have a personal relationship with my songs. That's fine but they don't know me.

Every relationship between persons causes a picture of each to take form in the mind of the other and this picture evidently is in reciprocal relationship with that personal relationship.

Most of my relationships have been like that - with record companies. I've never had a legitimate business relationship with a company. I've always had a personal relationship with someone in the company.

At this moment I do not have a personal relationship with a computer.

Well I think if you really go out with someone for quite a long time you do get to know each other very very well you go through the good times you go through the bad times. You know both personally but also within a relationship as well.

When you're in a relationship with somebody who is also a public personality then it doubles the attention from the media.
