“What is there more kindly than the feeling between host and guest?”
Aeschylus
“A guest never forgets the host who had treated him kindly”
Homer
“A guest has not to thank the host, but the host the guest”
Russian Proverb
“Every guest hates the others, and the host hates them all”
Albanian Proverb
“[An amazing host and a great guest list is one thing, but when the champagne is gone and everyone goes home, what is it that separates a good party from a great one?] The way I look at a successful event is positive press, ... As a publicist, I judge a party not on my fun, but on getting positive press from publications, and the celebrity turnout. I can't remember the last time I had fun at one of my events. If I have a good time, it's not a good sign.”
Lizzie Grubman
“If you are a host to your guest, be a host to his dog also”
“They felt like they were the hosts, and it was their tournament to say they don't want to host it. They were still interested in hosting, even though it's probably going to be a stretch financially for them because they obviously don't have the attendance to cover the expense.”
Jason Martel
