Festival Held

Famous quotes containing the words festival and/or held:

“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”

“Here lieth the worthy warrior
Who never bloodied sword;
Here lieth the noble counsellor,
Who never held his word.
Here lieth his Excellency,
Who ruled all the state;
Here lieth the Earl of Leicester,
Whom all the world did hate.”
