Fancy

Famous quotes containing the word fancy:

    But Madame Bad Luck soberly comes
    And stays—no fancy has she for flitting;
    John Milton Hay (1838–1905)

    All costumes are caricatures. The basis of Art is not the Fancy Ball.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    A symbol is indeed the only possible expression of some invisible essence, a transparent lamp about a spiritual flame; while allegory is one of many possible representations of an embodied thing, or familiar principle, and belongs to fancy and not to imagination: the one is a revelation, the other an amusement.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
