“Is it not possible to eat me without insisting that I sing praises of my devourer?”

“To eat and drink without a friend is to devour like the lion and the wolf.”

“You do not rehearse your praise, just do all right by yourself and go over big then, the world will sing your praise even without your approval.”

“Thank you for this precious day,These gifts you give to me,My heart so full of love for you,Sings praise for all I see,Oh, sing, for every mother's love,For every childhood tear,Oh, sing, for all the stars above,The peace beyond all fear”

“Though he slay me, yet I will praise him," he began softly, his voice a little tremulous at first. "I will rise up in the morning with the dew and praise his name. He has given me a place to serve him, a name with which to be known. He has called me forth and made my heart race with the wind on the Downs, made me soar with the blackbird in the evening. So though he slay me, yet I will praise him. Though sorrows be my lot, yet I will sing. When my last tear has fallen I will take up my song again, I will praise his most glorious exalted name.”

“Arma virumque cano........."*Literally: "I sing of arms and man".__I sing the praises of a man's stuggles__”
