Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or play:
“Talleyrand said that two things are essential in life: to give good dinners and to keep on fair terms with women. As the years pass and fires cool, it can become unimportant to stay always on fair terms either with women or one’s fellows, but a wide and sensitive appreciation of fine flavours can still abide with us, to warm our hearts.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (b. 1908)
“Anyone who seeks to destroy the passions instead of controlling them is trying to play the angel.”
—Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
