A few years ago no hotel or restaurant in Boston refused Negro guests; now several hotels, restaurants, and especially confectionary stores, will not serve Negroes, even the best of them.
Ray Stannard Baker
Children are not casual guests in our home. They have been loaned to us temporarily for the purpose of loving them and instilling a foundation of values on which their future lives will be built.
James Dobson
Dessert is probably the most important stage of the meal, since it will be the last thing your guests remember before they pass out all over the table.
William Powell
Few enjoy noisy overcrowded functions. But they are a gesture of goodwill on the part of host or hostess, and also on the part of guests who submit to them.
Fannie Hurst
For, after all, put it as we may to ourselves, we are all of us from birth to death guests at a table which we did not spread.
Rebecca H. Davis
Go now, verses, on your light feet, you have not trodden hard on the old earth where the graves laugh when they see their guests, the one corpse stacked on top of the other. Go now and stagger to her whom I do not know.
Hugo Claus
Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.
Benjamin Franklin
Here is Mike Wallace, who is visible to the public, and I have been watching him since the early '50s. Smoking up a storm and insulting his guests and being absolutely wonderfully evil and charming too.
Christopher Plummer
House guests should be regarded as perishables: Leave them out too long and they go bad.
Erma Bombeck
Humility is a virtue, and it is a virtue innate in guests.
Max Beerbohm
I always like to think I'm having a dinner party, and I'm the host, and the audience are my guests.
Caroline Rhea
I just got off stage playing with Lynyrd Skynyrd a minute ago. It was a great show. Got to meet some incredible guests. This is the bee's knees.
Bo Bice
I like when guests come over early and we chop veggies and talk and play music.
John Stamos
I've been a hip hop head forever. So when it turned out that we were gonna start getting celebrity guests for every show, I wanted rap guys from the get-go.
Andy Milonakis
In the end we're all Jerry Springer Show guests, really, we just haven't been on the show.
Marilyn Manson
It is the personality of the mistress that the home expresses. Men are forever guests in our homes, no matter how much happiness they may find there.
Elsie de Wolfe
It's long been a cliche in Washington that if you hang a lamb chop in your window, guests will come.
Suzanne Fields
Japanese naval officers in dress whites are frequent guests at Pearl Harbor's officers' mess and are very polite. They always were. Except, of course, for that little interval there between 1941 and 1945.
William Manchester
Jews have God's promise and if we Christians have it, too, then it is only as those chosen with them, as guests in their house, that we are new wood grafted onto their tree.
Karl Barth
Make your free men and guests sit as far as possible at tables on either side, not four here and three there.
