Fancy

Famous quotes containing the word fancy:

    I consider it useless and tedious to represent what exists, because nothing that exists satisfies me. Nature is ugly, and I prefer the monsters of my fancy to what is positively trivial.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    If I a fancy take
    To black and blue,
    That fancy doth it beauty make.
    Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)

    It is engend’red in the eyes,
    With gazing fed; and fancy dies
    In the cradle where it lies.
    Let us all ring fancy’s knell.
    I’ll begin it—Ding, dong, bell.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
