Famous quotes containing the word fancy:
“Good-night to the Season!the dances,
The fillings of hot little rooms,
The glancings of rapturous glances,
The fancyings of fancy costumes;
The pleasures which Fashion makes duties,
The praisings of fiddles and flutes,
The luxury of looking at beauties,
The tedium of talking to mutes;”
—Winthrop Mackworth Praed (18021839)
“Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
O Death in Life, the days that are no more.”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
“Theyre fancy talkers about themselves, writers. If I had to give young writers advice, I would say dont listen to writers talking about writing or themselves.”
—Lillian Hellman (19051984)
