And they shall say unto the elders
of his city, This our son is
stubborn and rebellious, he will
not obey our voice; he is a
glutton, and a drunkard. And all
the men of his city shall stone
him with stones, that he die: so
shalt thou put evil away from
among you; and all Israel shall
hear, and fear.
(Deuteronomy 21:20,21)
For the drunkard and
the glutton shall come to poverty:
and drowsiness shall clothe a man
with rags.
(Proverbs 23:21)
For three things the
earth is disquieted, and for four
which it cannot bear: For a servant when he
reigneth; and a fool when he is
filled with meat;
(Proverbs 30:21,22)
And I will say to my
soul, Soul, thou hast much goods
laid up for many years; take thine
ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
But God said unto him, Thou fool,
this night thy soul shall be
required of thee: then whose shall
those things be, which thou hast
provided?
(Luke 12:19,20)
Whose end is destruction, whose
God is their belly, and whose
glory is in their shame, who mind
earthly things.)
(Philippians 3:19) |

Inspirational Quotes from Famous People |
Gluttony kills
more than the sword.
--Proverb quotes
A
big man is always accused of
gluttony, whereas a wizened or
osseous man can eat like a refugee
at every meal, and no one ever
notices his greed.
- Robertson
Davies quotes
(Canadian Journalist and Author.
1913-1995)
Gluttony is not a secret vice.
- Orson Welles
quotes (American
motion-picture actor, director,
producer, and writer, 1915-1985)
Gluttony is the source of all our
infirmities and the fountain of
all our diseases. As fire
extinguished by an excess of fuel,
so is the natural health of the
body destroyed by an intemperate
diet.
- Burton quotes
The Bible and several other self
help or enlightenment books cite
the Seven Deadly Sins. They are:
pride, greed, lust, envy, wrath,
sloth, and gluttony. That pretty
much covers everything that we do,
that is sinful... or fun for that
matter.
--Dave Mustaine quotes
There is a difference between
eating and drinking for strength
and for mere gluttony.
--Henry David
Thoreau quotes
(American Essayist, Poet and
Philosopher, 1817-1862)
Gluttony is an emotional escape, a
sign something is eating us.
--Peter De Vries quotes
(American comic visionary, Editor,
Novelist, Satirist and Linguist.
1910-1993) |
