Fine

    Every body we know surrounds himself with a fine house, fine books, conservatory, gardens, equipage, and all manner of toys, as screens to interpose between himself and his guest.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    All the rest is mere fine writing.
    Paul Verlaine (1844–1896)

    Dissembling courtesy! How fine this tyrant
    Can tickle where she wounds!
