In 'The Odyssey,' every feast is extremely ritualized; high-status individuals even get a better cut of meat.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Feasts must be solemn and rare, or else they cease to be feasts.
Those who sit at the feast will continue to enjoy themselves even though the veil that separates them from the world of toiling reality below has been lifted by mass revolts and critics.
Every sacrament meeting ought to be a spiritual feast.
Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody.
Faith is the ticket to the feast, not the feast.
Meals make the society, hold the fabric together in lots of ways that were charming and interesting and intoxicating to me. The perfect meal, or the best meals, occur in a context that frequently has very little to do with the food itself.
Steak and its accompaniments - wine, vegetables, potatoes and generous desserts - is a primal source of pleasure to which many people can relate.
Food, in the end, in our own tradition, is something holy. It's not about nutrients and calories. It's about sharing. It's about honesty. It's about identity.
Oh, yeah, I'm all about ritual.
A good conscience is a continual feast.
