Feast

Famous quotes containing the word feast:

    My prime of youth is but a frost of cares,
    My feast of joy is but a dish of pain,
    My crop of corn is but a field of tares,
    And all my good is but vain hope of gain:
    The day is past, and yet I saw no sun,
    And now I live, and now my life is done.
    Chidiock Tichborne (1558–1586)

    Have no fear that the wine [of my book] will fail, like happened at the wedding feast of Canna in Galilee. As much as I draw from the tap, I will replace in the bunghole. In this way the barrel will remain inexhaustible.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.
    Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes, 10:19.
