Fine

Famous quotes containing the word fine:

    He wakes, unwinds, elaborately: a cat
    Tawny, reluctant, royal. He is fat
    And fine this morning. Definite. Reimbursed.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    “Faith” is a fine invention
    When Gentlemen can see—
    But Microscopes are prudent
    In an Emergency.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    The animal merely makes a bed, which he warms with his body, in a sheltered place; but man, having discovered fire, boxes up some air in a spacious apartment, and warms that.... Thus he goes a step or two beyond instinct, and saves a little time for the fine arts.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
