Fine

Famous quotes containing the word fine:

    The intellectual is a middle-class product; if he is not born into the class he must soon insert himself into it, in order to exist. He is the fine nervous flower of the bourgeoisie.
    Louise Bogan (1897–1970)

    “Faith” is a fine invention
    When Gentleman can see—
    But Microscopes are prudent
    In an Emergency.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    To have gathered from the air a live tradition
    or from a fine old eye the unconquered flame
    This is not vanity.
    Here error is all in the not done,
    all in the diffidence that faltered . . .
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
