Fare

Famous quotes containing the word fare:

    He showed me his bill of fare to tempt me to dine with him; said I, I value not your bill of fare, give me your bill of company.

    Irresolute and selfish, misshapen, lame,
    Unable to fare forward or retreat....

    Cassoulet, that best of bean feasts, is everyday fare for a peasant but ambrosia for a gastronome, though its ideal consumer is a 300-pound blocking back who has been splitting firewood nonstop for the last twelve hours on a subzero day in Manitoba.
    Julia Child (b. 1912)
