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 first day a man is a guest, the second a burden, the third a pest.
    Edouard Laboulaye (1811–1883)
