Famous quotes containing the words fine and/or mellow:

    I have a vocabulary all my own. I “pass the time” when it is wet and disagreeable. When it is fine I do not wish to pass it; I ruminate it and hold on to it. We should hasten over the bad, and settle upon the good.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    The dinner-hour is the summer of the day: full of sunshine, I grant; but not like the mellow autumn of supper.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
