Feast

Famous quotes containing the word feast:

    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.

    The actions of each dancer were scrutinized with great care and any little mistake noted and remembered. The strain upon a dancer was consequently so great that when a fine dancer died soon after a feast it was said, “The peoples’ looks have killed him.”
    Merle Colby, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
