Fine

Famous quotes containing the word fine:

    It’s certain that fine women eat
    A crazy salad with their meat
    Whereby the Horn of Plenty is undone.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    To market, to market, to buy a fat pig;
    Home again, home again, jiggety jig.
    To market, to market, to buy a fine hog;
    Home again, home again, joggety jog.
    Unknown. To Market, to Market, to Buy a Fat Pig (l. 1–4)

    Genius is talent provided with ideals. Genius starves while talent wears purple and fine linen. The man of genius of today will in fifty years’ time be in most cases no more than a man of talent.
    Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
