Famous quotes containing the words fort and/or folly:
“Look, it’s moving. It’s alive, it’s alive, it’s alive. It’s moving. It’s alive, it’s alive, it’s alive, it’s alive, it’s alive!”

“Only by being guilty of Folly does mortal man in many cases arrive at the perception of Sense. A thought which should forever free us from hasty imprecations upon our ever-recurring intervals of Folly; since though Folly be our teacher, Sense is the lesson she teaches; since, if Folly wholly depart from us, Further Sense will be her companion in the flight, and we will be left standing midway in wisdom.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
