Guest

Famous quotes containing the word guest:

    “Praise to Christ who feeds the hungry, frees the captive, finds the lost,
    Heals the sick, upsets religion, fearless both of fate and cost.
    Celebrate Christ’s constant presence—Friend and Stranger, Guest and Host.”
    —The Iona Community (founded 1938)

    “And here the precious dust is layd;
    Whose purely temper’d Clay was made
    So fine, that it the guest betray’d.

    Else the soule grew so fast within,
    It broke the outward shell of sinne,
    And so was hatch’d a Cherubin.”
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)

    “This guest of summer,
    The temple-haunting martlet, does approve,
    By his loved mansionry, that the heaven’s breath
    Smells wooingly here.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
