Fancy Free

Famous quotes containing the words fancy and/or free:

    I consider it useless and tedious to represent what exists, because nothing that exists satisfies me. Nature is ugly, and I prefer the monsters of my fancy to what is positively trivial.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    Pleasant it is, when over a great sea the winds trouble the waters, to gaze from shore upon another’s great tribulation; not because any man’s troubles are a delectable joy, but because to perceive you are free of them yourself is pleasant.
    Lucretius (Titus Lucretius Carus)
