Famous quotes containing the words peanut and/or festival:
“It has been an unchallengeable American doctrine that cranberry sauce, a pink goo with overtones of sugared tomatoes, is a delectable necessity of the Thanksgiving board and that turkey is uneatable without it....

—Alistair Cooke (b. 1908)
“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”
