Banquet Scene

Famous quotes containing the words banquet and/or scene:

    One banquet in a rich family could feed a poor man’s family for half a year.
    Chinese proverb.

    Fanny was not there! How she would have enjoyed the scene.... I could not but think of her, and in spite of my efforts to prevent, the unbidden tear would flow. Alas! I cannot feel the satisfaction some appear to do in the reflection that her eyes beheld the scene from the other world.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
