"Unbidden guests Are often welcomest when they are gone."

"Here's our chief guest. If he had been forgotten, It had been as a gap in our great feast."

"Be bright and jovial among your guests to-night."

"See, your guests approach: Address yourself to entertain them sprightly, And let's be red with mirth."

"Methinks a father Is at the nuptial of his son a guest That best becomes the table."

"Hail, guest, we ask not what thou art; If friend, we greet thee, hand and heart; If stranger, such no longer be; If foe, our love shall conquer thee."

"For whom he means to make an often guest, One dish shall serve; and welcome make the rest."

"Quo me cumque rapit tempestas deferor hospes."

"Sometimes, when guests have gone, the host remembers Sweet courteous things unsaid. We two have talked our hearts out to the embers, And now go hand in hand down to the dead."

"You must come home with me and be my guest; You will give joy to me, and I will do All that is in my power to honour you."

"To the guests that must go, bid God's speed and brush away all traces of their steps."
