Sabbath
A season or day of rest; one day in seven appointed for rest or worship, the observance of which was enjoined upon the Jews in the Decalogue, and has been continued by the Christian church with a transference of the day observed from the last to the first day of the week, which is called also Lord's Day.
The seventh year, observed among the Israelites as one of rest and festival.
Fig.: A time of rest or repose; intermission of pain, effort, sorrow, or the like.

Sabbath Quotations
Sabbath - a weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.
Ambrose Bierce
Who's the new Ramones, who's the new Guns 'N Roses, who's the new Motley Crue, who's the new Black Sabbath? They're coming, they're on the street, they're 16, 17 years old.
Nikki Sixx
Anybody can observe the Sabbath, but making it holy surely takes the rest of the week.
Alice Walker
If there was no Black Sabbath, I could still possibly be a morning newspaper delivery boy. No fun.
Lars Ulrich
We're trying to have the band create something beautiful that hopefully one day, 20 years from now, can be picked up by a kid and hopefully have the same effect that Neil Young had on me, or Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath.
Ville Valo
Black Sabbath was written on bass: I just walked into the studio and went, bah, bah, bah, and everybody joined in and we just did it.
Geezer Butler
To me, Sabbath was always JUSt a really heavy blues band. That s all we were. We just took those blues roots and made them heavier.
Geezer Butler
Toward the later days of Sabbath, instead of going in and knocking out what songs we did in rehearsal, we would polish them to death.
Geezer Butler
To do the Ozzfest again would be great. I'd like to finish with a final Sabbath album. You always feel that it is still a challenge.
Geezer Butler
I was so frustrated in Sabbath after the last few albums. I just didn't like the musical direction Sabbath was going in.
Geezer Butler
