Actually....<br><br>it is a verse from the bible.<br><br>"Sorrow is better than laughter for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth."<br>-Ecclesiastes 7:3-4
Are you sure about that? Do you possibly have a source where you found that information? <br>Thanks
Haus Bellomont is German for "House of Mirth." The house party Lily attends at the very beginning of the book is called Bellomont.
Haus Bellomont does not mean "House of Mirth" in German
