Famous quotes containing the words feast and/or day:

    Have no fear that the wine [of my book] will fail, like happened at the wedding feast of Canna in Galilee. As much as I draw from the tap, I will replace in the bunghole. In this way the barrel will remain inexhaustible.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    The whole of the day should not be daytime; there should be one hour, if not more, which the day did not bring forth.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
