“Were a stranger to drop on a sudden into this world, I would show him, as a specimen of its ills, a hospital full of diseases, a prison crowded with malefactors and debtors, a field of battle strewed with carcasses, a fleet foundering in the ocean, a nation languishing under tyranny, famine, or pestilence.

“It is a fact of life that people give dinner parties, and when they invite you, you have to turn around and invite them back. Often they retaliate by inviting you again, and you must then extend another invitation. Back and forth you go, like Ping-Pong balls, and what you end up with is called social life.” PeopleGivingEndsFactsTurnsSocialPartyBallsDinnerInvitesInvitationsBack And ForthSocial LifeFacts Of LifeYou AgainInvitingDinner PartyPingPing Pong Author:Laurie Colwin
