Charlemagne Quote

It is not lack of self-restraint but care for others which makes me dine in Lent before the hour of evening.


Quoted in Notker's The Deeds of Charlemagne (translated 2008 by David Ganz)


It is not lack of self-restraint but care for others which makes me dine in Lent before the hour of evening.

It is not lack of self-restraint but care for others which makes me dine in Lent before the hour of evening.

It is not lack of self-restraint but care for others which makes me dine in Lent before the hour of evening.

It is not lack of self-restraint but care for others which makes me dine in Lent before the hour of evening.
