Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
Playwright
 
  A wise playwright should act like the man who gives a magnificent feast: he should seek to delight the spectators, that each on departing may feel he has eaten and drunk just the things he would chiefly have chosen himself: not set but one dish for all palates, one writing for all sorts of tastes.
            —Astydamus, junior
