crackling quotes

For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of a fool: this also is vanity.

-Bible (Old Testament)
Ecclesiastes 7:6.

Heap high the groaning platter with pink fillets, sucking pig and thick gammon, celestial chef. Be generous with the crackling. Let your hand slip with the gravy trough, dispensing plenty.

-MacBeth, George Mann
