Larchill/features/follies

Famous quotes containing the words features and/or follies:

    Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)

    Friendship is but another name for an alliance with the follies and the misfortunes of others. Our own share of miseries is sufficient: why enter then as volunteers into those of another?
