Fine Paper

Famous quotes containing the words fine and/or paper:

    Every body we know surrounds himself with a fine house, fine books, conservatory, gardens, equipage, and all manner of toys, as screens to interpose between himself and his guest.

    and the traffic grinding the
    borders of spring ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
