Guest Star

Famous quotes containing the words guest and/or star:

“When mother’s relatives visited,

When father’s guest arrrived,
mother swelled and had a fit.”

“Firmness yclept in heroes, kings and seamen,
That is, when they succeed; but greatly blamed
As obstinacy, both in men and women,
Whene’er their triumph pales, or star is tamed —
And ‘twill perplex the casuist in morality
To fix the due bounds of this dangerous quality.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
