George Eliot: What a wretched...

Source: NOVELISTS

What a wretched lot of old shrivelled creatures we shall be by-and-by. Never mind --the uglier we get in the eyes of others, the lovelier we shall be to each other; that has always been my firm faith about friendship.

Source: Letter, 27 May 1852.
-- George Eliot, (Nov 22 1819-1880), English novelist; Mary Ann Evans was the foremost woman novelist of her time, e.g., Silas Marner, 1861.
