Feast

Famous quotes containing the word feast:

“The sacrifice to Legba was completed; the Master of the Crossroads had taken the loas’ mysterious routes back to his native Guinea.

—Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)

“A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.”
