Feast Days

Famous quotes containing the words feast and/or days:

    “How charming is divine philosophy!
    Not harsh and crabbèd, as dull fools suppose,
    But musical as is Apollo’s lute,
    And a perpetual feast of nectared sweets,
    Where no crude surfeit reigns.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “Many are concerned about the monuments of the West and the East,—to know who built them. For my part, I should like to know who in those days did not build them,—who were above such trifling.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
