Fine

Famous quotes containing the word fine:

    “A lady is smarter than a gentleman, maybe,
    She can sew a fine seam, she can have a baby,
    She can use her intuition instead of her brain,
    But she can’t fold a paper in a crowded train.”
    —Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

    “The Good of man is the active exercise of his soul’s faculties in conformity with excellence or virtue.... Moreover this activity must occupy a complete lifetime; for one swallow does not make spring, nor does one fine day; and similarly one day or a brief period of happiness does not make a man supremely blessed and happy.”
    —Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)

    “For that fine madness still he did retain
    Which rightly should possess a poet’s brain.”
    —Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
