Famous quotes containing the words romantic and/or friendship:
“The Enlightenment needs more shadow; the Romantic Movement less.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“When all is said and done, friendship is the only trustworthy fabric of the affections. So-called love is a delirious inhuman state of mind: when hot it substitutes indulgence for fair play; when cold it is cruel, but friendship is warmth in cold, firm ground in a bog.”
