Famous quotes containing the words table of and/or table:

    Remember thee?
    Ay, thou poor ghost, whiles memory holds a seat
    In this distracted globe. Remember thee?
    Yea, from the table of my memory
    I’ll wipe away all trivial fond records,
    All saws of books, all forms, all pressures past
    That youth and observation copied there,
    And thy commandment all alone shall live
    Within the book and volume of my brain,
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
    Bible: Hebrew Psalms, 23:5.
