Quotations for infectious

Society is the atmosphere of souls; and we necessarily imbibe from it something which is either infectious or healthful. [ Bishop Hall ]

Sweet recreation barred, what doth ensue but moody and dull melancholy, kinsman to grim and comfortless despair; and at their heels, a huge infectious troop of pale distemperatures and foes to life. [ William Shakespeare ]
