Feast Days

Famous quotes containing the words feast and/or days:

“This day is called the Feast of Crispian.
He that outlives this day and comes safe home
Will stand a-tiptoe when this day is nam’d
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours
And say, “Tomorrow is Saint Crispian.””
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“... The glamour
Of childish days is upon me, my manhood is cast
Down in the flood of remembrance ...”
