Famous quotes containing the word fine:

“The white stretch
of its white beach,
curved as the moon crescent
or ivory when some fine hand
chisels it.”

“Why the ghosts of poor old dead Romans should be dragged in every time a man eats an oyster, I don’t see. We’re as fine specimens as they were. I swear I shan’t let any old turned-to-clay Lucullus outlive me, even if I’ve never eaten a lamprey.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

“Men are fools that wish to die!
Is ‘t not fine to dance and sing
When the bells of death do ring?”
