More quotes by Ward McAllister
There is but one season of the year when salmon should be served hot at a choice repast that is in the spring and early summer, and even then it is too satisfying, nut sufficiently delicate. The man who gives salmon during the winter, I care not what sauce he serves with it, does an injury to himself and his guests.
Ward McAllister
A dinner invitation, once accepted, is a sacred obligation. If you die before the dinner takes place, your executor must attend.

A man with a million dollars can be as happy nowadays as though he were rich.
