Fancy

Famous quotes containing the word fancy:

    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 (1809–1892)

    You beat your pate, and fancy wit will come:
    Knock as you please, there’s nobody at home.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    The fancy that extraterrestrial life is by definition of a higher order than our own is one that soothes all children, and many writers.
    Joan Didion (b. 1934)
