Comfortable

Famous quotes containing the word comfortable:

“... if a person is to be unconventional, he must be amusing or he is intolerable: for, in the nature of the case, he guarantees you nothing but amusement.

—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

“Civilization is a conspiracy.... Modern life is the silent compact of comfortable folk to keep up pretences.”
