Fancy Vivid Orange

Famous quotes containing the words fancy, vivid and/or orange:

    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I have come slowly into possession of such powers as I have ... I receive the opinions of my day. I do not conceive them. But I receive them into a vivid mind.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    Give not this rotten orange to your friend;
    She’s but the sign and semblance of her honor.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
