Fine

Famous quotes containing the word fine:

“The farmer imagines power and place are fine things. But the President has paid dear for his White House. It has commonly cost him all his peace, and the best of his manly attributes.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Well, a fine opinion he must have of me, if he thinks I’d go to any man without a proper fortune. And this you may tell your Mr. Party of the First Part, that when I wed whatever’s my own goes with me.”
—Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)

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