Fools make feasts, and wise men eat them. [ Proverb ]

He that overfeeds his senses feasts his enemies. [ Proverb ]

Our rural ancestors, with little blest,
Patient of labor when the end was rest,
Indulged the day that housed their annual grain,
With feasts, and offerings, and a thankful strain. [ Pope ]

Joy never feasts so high as when the first course is of misery. [ Suckling ]

He that feasts a flatterer and a slanderer, dines with two devils. [ Proverb ]

Feasts and business and pleasure and enjoyments seem great things to us, whilst we think of nothing else: but as soon as we add death to them they all sink into an equal littleness. [ William Law ]

A companion that feasts the company with wit and mirth, and leaves out the sin which is usually mixed with them, he is the man; and let me tell you, good company and good discourse are the very sinews of virtue. [ Izaak Walton ]
