Poor Condition

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or condition:

“A new disease? I know not, new or old,
But it may well be called poor mortals’ plague:
For, like a pestilence, it doth infect
The houses of the brain ...
Till not a thought, or motion, in the mind,
Be free from the black poison of suspect.”
—Ben Jonson (c. 1572–1637)

“Our own peculiar human condition is that we are as fit to be laughed at as able to laugh.”
