The Man who Laughs - Victor Hugo

This quote was added by malevolarky
The populace must need laughter, and kings too. The mountebank is wanted in the streets, the jester at the Louvre. The one is called a clown, the other a fool. The efforts of man to procure himself pleasure are at times worthy of the attention of the philosopher.
