![Banquets Quotes By Juvenal Banquets Quotes By Juvenal](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-juvenal-1310395.jpg)
Ask for a valiant heart which has banished the fear of death, which looks upon the length of days as one of the least of nature's gifts; which is able to suffer every kind of hardship, is proof against anger, craves for nothing, and reckons the trials and gruelling labours of Hercules as more desirable blessings than the amorous ease and the banquets and cushions of Sardanapallus. The things that I recommend you can grant to yourself. — Juvenal

![Banquets Quotes By Margaret Atwood Banquets Quotes By Margaret Atwood](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-margaret-atwood-909958.jpg)
To understand Homo sapiens' primary wish list, go back to mythology. We endowed the gods with the abilities we wished we had ourselves: immortality and eternal youth, flight, resplendent beauty, total power, climate control, ultimate weapons, delicious banquets minus the cooking and washing up - and artificial creatures at our beck and call. — Margaret Atwood
![Banquets Quotes By Immanuel Kant Banquets Quotes By Immanuel Kant](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-immanuel-kant-2126378.jpg)
But under a constitution where the subject is not a citizen, and which is therefore not republican, it is the simplest thing in the world to go to war. For the head of state is not a fellow citizen, but the owner of the state, and a war will not force him to make the slightest sacrifice so far as his banquets, hunts, pleasure palaces and court festivals are concerned. He can thus decide on war, without any significant reason, as a kind of amusement, and unconcernedly leave it to the diplomatic corps (who are always ready for such purposes) to justify the war for the sake of propriety. — Immanuel Kant

And soon, as Tacitus put it, the Britons were dressing up in togas and taking their first steps on the path to vice, thanks to porticoes, baths and banquets. He sums this up in a pithy sentence: 'They called it, in their ignorance, "civilisation", but it was really part of their enslavement' ('Humanitas vocabatur, cum pars servitutis esset'). — Mary Beard
![Banquets Quotes By Diodorus Siculus Banquets Quotes By Diodorus Siculus](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-diodorus-siculus-638403.jpg)
He (King Philip) wanted as many Greeks as possible to take part in the festivities in honour of the gods, and so planned brilliant musical contests and lavish banquets for his friends and guests. Out of all Greece he summoned his personal guest-friends and ordered the members of his court to bring along as many as they could of their acquaintances from abroad. — Diodorus Siculus
![Banquets Quotes By Pope Gregory I Banquets Quotes By Pope Gregory I](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-pope-gregory-i-415030.jpg)
And here we must narrowly watch ourselves, seeing that banquets can scarcely be celebrated blamelessly, for almost always luxury accompanies feasting; and when the body is swallowed up in the delight of refreshing itself, the heart relaxes to empty joys. — Pope Gregory I

A man who fears not God, will break all his laws with an easy conscience, but one who is the favorite of heaven, who has been indulged to sit at royal banquets, who knows the eternal love of God to him, cannot bear that there should be any evil way in him that might grieve the Spirit and bring dishonor to the name of Christ. A very little sin, as the world calls it, is a very great sin to a truly awakened Christian. — Charles Spurgeon

![Banquets Quotes By Max Horkheimer Banquets Quotes By Max Horkheimer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-max-horkheimer-2260339.jpg)
A revolutionary career does not lead to banquets and honorary titles, interesting research and professorial wages. It leads to misery, disgrace, ingratitude, prison and a voyage into the unknown, illuminated by only an almost superhuman belief. — Max Horkheimer

He missed Hogwarts so much it was like having a constant stomachache. He missed the castle, with its secret passageways and ghosts, his classes, ... the mail arriving by owl, eating banquets in the Great Hall, sleeping in his four-poster bed in the tower dormitory, visiting the gamekeeper, Hagrid, in his cabin next to the Forbidden Forest in the grounds, and especially, Quidditch, the most popular sport in the wizarding world — J.K. Rowling

"Love thy neighbour." Perhaps he rolls in riches, and thou art poor, and living in thy little cot side-by-side with his lordly mansion; thou seest every day his estates, his fine linen, and his sumptuous banquets; God has given him these gifts, covet not his wealth, and think no hard thoughts concerning him. Be content with thine own lot, if thou canst not better it, but do not look upon thy neighbour, and wish that he were as thyself. Love him, and then thou wilt not envy him. — Charles Haddon Spurgeon
![Banquets Quotes By Washington Irving Banquets Quotes By Washington Irving](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-washington-irving-2121329.jpg)
Some minds corrode and grow inactive under the loss of personal liberty; others grow morbid and irritable; but it is the nature of the poet to become tender and imaginitive in the loneliness of confinement. He banquets upon the honey of his own thoughts, and, like the captive bird, pours forth his soul in melody. — Washington Irving
![Banquets Quotes By Fyodor Dostoyevsky Banquets Quotes By Fyodor Dostoyevsky](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-fyodor-dostoyevsky-1546562.jpg)
The queen who mended her stockings in prison must have looked every inch a queen and even more a queen than at sumptuous banquets and levees. — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

![Banquets Quotes By Stephanie Klein Banquets Quotes By Stephanie Klein](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-stephanie-klein-1667958.jpg)
I can trace every romance of my life back to a meal. My memories are enhanced by the tender morsels had at tables across from lovers, on blankets with friends who'd eventually become more, in banquets, barbecues, and breakfasts. — Stephanie Klein
![Banquets Quotes By Gregory Benford Banquets Quotes By Gregory Benford](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-gregory-benford-1724046.jpg)

![Banquets Quotes By G.K. Chesterton Banquets Quotes By G.K. Chesterton](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-g-k-chesterton-1174839.jpg)
To be Queen Elizabeth within a definite area, deciding sales, banquets, labours, and holidays; to be Whitely within a certain area, providing toys, boots, cakes and books; to be Aristotle within a certain area, teaching morals, manners, theology, and hygiene; I can imagine how this can exhaust the mind, but I cannot imagine how it could narrow it. How can it be a large career to tell other people about the Rule of Three, and a small career to tell one's own children about the universe? How can it be broad to be the same thing to everyone and narrow to be everything to someone? No, a woman's function is laborious, but because it is gigantic, not because it is minute. — G.K. Chesterton
![Banquets Quotes By Martial Banquets Quotes By Martial](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-martial-1811382.jpg)
When your crowd of attendants so loudly applaud you, Pomponius, it is not you, but your banquet, that is eloquent. — Martial
![Banquets Quotes By Max Horkheimer Banquets Quotes By Max Horkheimer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-max-horkheimer-1914164.jpg)
The development of the proletarian elite does not take place in an academic setting. Rather, it is brought about by battles in the factories and unions, by disciplinary punishments and some very dirty fights within the parties and outside of them, by jail sentences and illegality. Students do not flock in large numbers there as they do to the lecture halls and laboratories of the bourgeoisie. The career of a revolutionary does not consists of banquets and honarary titles, of interesting research projects and professional salaries; more likely, it will acquaint them with misery, dishonory and jail and, at the end, uncertainty. These conditions are made bearable only by a super-human faith. Understandably, this way of life will not be the choice of those who are nothing more than clever. — Max Horkheimer
![Banquets Quotes By Sarah Bird Banquets Quotes By Sarah Bird](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-sarah-bird-1919030.jpg)
Parents do not, indeed, live by bread alone. We feast daily on banquets of our own words. — Sarah Bird
![Banquets Quotes By Ambrose Bierce Banquets Quotes By Ambrose Bierce](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-ambrose-bierce-1940751.jpg)
NECTAR, n. A drink served at banquets of the Olympian deities. The secret of its preparation is lost, but the modern Kentuckians believe that they come pretty near to a knowledge of its chief ingredient. — Ambrose Bierce
![Banquets Quotes By Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton Banquets Quotes By Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-edward-bulwer-lytton-1st-baron-lytton-2089557.jpg)
To live
On means not yours
be brave in silks and laces,
Gallant in steeds; splendid in banquets; all
Not yours. Given, uninherited, unpaid for;
This is to be a trickster; and to filch
Men's art and labour, which to them is wealth,
Life, daily bread;
quitting all scores with "friend,
You're troublesome!" Why this, forgive me,
Is what, when done with a less dainty grace,
Plain folks call "Theft. — Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
![Banquets Quotes By Ella Wheeler Wilcox Banquets Quotes By Ella Wheeler Wilcox](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-ella-wheeler-wilcox-1944089.jpg)
We two make banquets of the plainest fare
In every cup we find the thrill of pleasure ...
For us life always moves with lilting measure
We two, we two, we make our world, our pleasure — Ella Wheeler Wilcox
![Banquets Quotes By Italo Calvino Banquets Quotes By Italo Calvino](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-italo-calvino-1989193.jpg)
From this arid sphere every discourse and every poem sets forth; and every journey
through forests, battles, treasures, banquets, bedchambers, brings us back here, to the center
of an empty horizon. — Italo Calvino
![Banquets Quotes By Alan W. Watts Banquets Quotes By Alan W. Watts](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-alan-w-watts-719099.jpg)
Wanted to dream when you went to sleep at night. For at least a month you would live out all your wishes in your dreams. You would have banquets and music and everything that you ever thought you wanted. But then, after a few weeks of this, you would say, "Well, this is getting a little dull. Let's have an adventure. Let's get into trouble." It is all right to get into trouble because you know you are going to wake up at the end of it. So you could fight dragons and rescue princesses, and all that sort of thing. — Alan W. Watts
![Banquets Quotes By Andrew Jackson Banquets Quotes By Andrew Jackson](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-andrew-jackson-137110.jpg)
This season has been full of rewards. The dinners and banquets just keep on coming. It's great. We want to carry it on as long as we can. — Andrew Jackson
![Banquets Quotes By Edouard Leve Banquets Quotes By Edouard Leve](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-edouard-leve-137718.jpg)
In the midst of this utopia, which only your fellow lone voyagers would perceive, you used to transgress society's rules unknowingly, and no one would hold you accountable for it. You would mistakenly enter private residences, go to concerts to which you had not been invited, eat at community banquets where you could only guess the community's identity when they started giving speeches. Had you behaved like this in your own country, you would have been taken for a liar or a fool. But the improbable ways of a foreigner are accepted. Far from your home, you used to taste the pleasure of being mad without being alienated, of being an imbecile without renouncing your intelligence, of being an impostor without culpability. — Edouard Leve
![Banquets Quotes By M.C. Scott Banquets Quotes By M.C. Scott](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-m-c-scott-214558.jpg)
The mare on which the traitor had been seated at the time of his death was, obviously, no longer considered the best horse in Parthia. It was amazing that she had not been served as stew at one of the banquets. — M.C. Scott
![Banquets Quotes By Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch Banquets Quotes By Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-leopold-von-sacher-masoch-215442.jpg)
People who want to live like Olympian gods must have slaves whom they throw into their fishponds and gladiators who fight during their masters sumptuous banquets-and the pleasure-seekers never care if some blood splatters on them. — Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch
![Banquets Quotes By Kenneth Grahame Banquets Quotes By Kenneth Grahame](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-kenneth-grahame-279731.jpg)
Banquets are always pleasant things, consisting mostly, as they do, of eating and drinking; but the specially nice thing about a banquet is, that it comes when something's over, and there's nothing more to worry about, and to-morrow seems a long way off. — Kenneth Grahame
![Banquets Quotes By Zig Ziglar Banquets Quotes By Zig Ziglar](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-zig-ziglar-410978.jpg)

![Banquets Quotes By William Shakespeare Banquets Quotes By William Shakespeare](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-william-shakespeare-476269.jpg)
In Shakespeare's day much less time was spent in eating and drinking than formerly, when, besides breakfast in the forenoon and dinners, there were "beverages" or "nuntion" after dinner, and supper before going to bed - "a toie brought in by hardie Canutus," who was a gross feeder. Generally there were, except for the young who could not fast till dinnertime, only two meals daily, dinner and supper. Yet the Normans had brought in the habit of sitting long at the table - a custom not yet altogether abated, since the great people, especially at banquets, sit till two or three o'clock in the afternoon; so that it is a hard matter to rise and go to evening prayers and return in time for supper. — William Shakespeare
![Banquets Quotes By John Gay Banquets Quotes By John Gay](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-john-gay-513266.jpg)

![Banquets Quotes By Robert G. Ingersoll Banquets Quotes By Robert G. Ingersoll](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-robert-g-ingersoll-608217.jpg)
There is something wrong in a government where they who do the most have the least. There is something wrong when honesty wears a rag, and rascality a robe; when the loving, the tender, east a crust, while the infamous sit at banquets. — Robert G. Ingersoll
![Banquets Quotes By J.R.R. Tolkien Banquets Quotes By J.R.R. Tolkien](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-j-r-r-tolkien-644239.jpg)
And so it was settled. Sam Gamgee married Rose Cotton in the spring of 1420 (which was also famous for its weddings), and they came and lived at Bag End. And if Sam thought himself lucky, Frodo knew that he was more lucky himself; for there was not a hobbit in the Shire that was looked after with such care. When the labours or repair had all been planned and set going he took to a quiet life, writing a good deal and going through all his notes. He resigned the office of Deputy Mayor at the Free Fair that Midsummer, and dear old Will Whitfoot had another seven years of presiding at Banquets. — J.R.R. Tolkien

![Banquets Quotes By E. Norman Torry Banquets Quotes By E. Norman Torry](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-e-norman-torry-1249080.jpg)
A fig for your precious society with its bridge parties, its inane chatter, its cheap mentality; its dances and vulgar banquets; its snobbery and cheap pretension. The humblest library can show you upon a single shelf better society and far more select company than all the drawing-rooms of Europe, America, and South Africa. — E. Norman Torry
![Banquets Quotes By Terry Pratchett Banquets Quotes By Terry Pratchett](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-terry-pratchett-750168.jpg)
He'd noticed that sex bore some resemblance to cookery: it fascinated people, they sometimes bought books full of complicated recipes and interesting pictures, and sometimes when they were really hungry they created vast banquets in their imagination - but at the end of the day they'd settle quite happily for egg and chips. If it was well done and maybe had a slice of tomato. — Terry Pratchett
![Banquets Quotes By Erik Larson Banquets Quotes By Erik Larson](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-erik-larson-763543.jpg)
Goebbels was known for his wit; Martha, for a time, considered him charming. "Infectious and delightful, eyes sparkling, voice soft, his speech witty and light, it is difficult to remember his cruelty, his cunning destructive talents." Her mother, Mattie, always enjoyed being seated next to Goebbels at banquets; Dodd considered him "one of the few men with a sense of humor in Germany — Erik Larson
![Banquets Quotes By John McGahern Banquets Quotes By John McGahern](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-john-mcgahern-775967.jpg)
Without the book business it would be difficult or impossible for true books to find their true readers and without that solitary (and potentially subversive) alone with a book the whole razzmatazz of prizes, banquets, television spectaculars, bestseller lists, even literature courses, editors and authors, are all worthless. Unless a book finds lovers among those solitary readers, it will not live ... or live for long. — John McGahern
![Banquets Quotes By Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin Banquets Quotes By Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-jean-anthelme-brillat-savarin-788496.jpg)

![Banquets Quotes By Pythagoras Banquets Quotes By Pythagoras](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-pythagoras-800167.jpg)
Oh, my fellow men, do not defile your bodies with sinful foods. We have corn, we have apples bending down the branches with their weight, and grapes swelling on the vines. There are sweet-flavored herbs, and vegetables which can be cooked and softened over the fire, nor are you denied milk or thyme-scented honey. The earth affords a lavish supply of riches, of innocent foods, and offers you banquets that involve no bloodshed or slaughter; only beasts satisfy their hunger with flesh, and not even all of those, because horses, cattle, and sheep live on grass. — Pythagoras

Setting sail from Tidore, his next port of call was the island of Celebes, where he found himself royally entertained by the King of Butung.... This island unknown to the English but Middleton (Captain David Middleton) enjoyed his stay here and found the King a curious fellow who was only to keen to entertain his guests with banquets and sweetmeats. Some meals were novel affairs; the ship's purser found himself eating in a room whose interior decor consisted entirely of rotting human heads, dangling from the ceiling. — Giles Milton
![Banquets Quotes By Epictetus Banquets Quotes By Epictetus](https://quotessayings.net/pics/banquets-quote-by-epictetus-914536.jpg)

Unlike conventional jocks, who tend to sell aluminum siding and give canned speeches to parochial-school athletic banquets in the off-season, race drivers never shuck their image when they leave the stadium. They are supposed to be zany, nomadic soldiers of fortune who are involved in wild endeavors during every waking moment. — Brock Yates
