Fine

Famous quotes containing the word fine:

    “The perception of the comic is a tie of sympathy with other men, a pledge of sanity, and a protection from those perverse tendencies and gloomy insanities in which fine intellects sometimes lose themselves. A rogue alive to the ludicrous is still convertible. If that sense is lost, his fellow-men can do little for him.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I hate to say it, Cory, but as a pool player you make a fine speedboat mechanic.”
    —Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

    “I have come to realize that in every person there is something fine and pure and noble, along with a desire for self-fulfillment.”
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
