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.”

    “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)

    “If you want to feast on sea-dragon’s flesh, go down to the sea yourself.”
