Famous quotes containing the word lodge:

    Vices may be said to await us along the course of our lives like hosts with whom we lodge successively on a journey; and I doubt that experience would cause us to avoid them, if we could travel the same road twice.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
