Fond of those hives where folly reigns, And cards and scandal are the chains, Where the pert virgin slights a name, And scorns to redden into shame.
Jonathan Swift
Image
Fond man! though all the heroes of your line Bedeck your halls, and round your galleries shine In proud display yet take this truth from me-- Virtue alone is true nobility!
Juvenal
Image
Fond memory brings the light of other days around me.
Thomas Moore

Image
How many fond fools serve mad jealousy!
William Shakespeare

It is a difficult matter to gain the affection of a cat. He is a philosophical, methodical animal, tenacious of his own habits, fond of order and neatness, and disinclined to extravagant sentiment. He will be your friend, if he finds you worthy of friendship, but not your slave.
Theophile Gautier
Image
It appears that the English think the Japanese... are fond of opium, and they want to bring it here also.
Townsend Harris
Image
When these idiot rightwingers start complaining about poetry being political, I'm fond of reciting Sappho to them, who excluded men from her world. Why does she exclude them? Mostly because of their warmongering.
Sam Hamill
Image

William Shakespeare

People used to blush when they were ashamed. Now they are ashamed if they blush. Modesty has disappeared and a brazen generation with no fear of God before its eyes mocks at sin. We are so fond of being called tolerant and broadminded that we wink at sin when we ought to weep.
Vance Havner
Image
I have fond memories of growing up in beautiful England. It is very much a part of the fabric of me, even though I left when I was quite young. It's just a very different culture over there, filled with a profound depth of history.
Samantha Newark

But thou that didst appear so fair To fond imagination, Dost rival in the light of day Her delicate creation.
William Wordsworth
Image
I love the food, the girls, the sky and everything that is Delhi. I have very fond memories of the Moolchand flyover.
Vir Das
Image
That friendship may be at once fond and lasting, there must not only be equal virtue on each part, but virtue of the same kind not only the same end must be proposed, but the same means must be approved by both.
Samuel Johnson
Image
I feel devoutly thankful to have been born fond of writing.
Winston Churchill
Image
I am very fond of truth, but not at all of martyrdom.
Voltaire
Image
What is wine? It is the grape present in another form its essence is there, though the fruit which produced it grew thousands of miles away, and perished years ago. So the object of many a tender thought may be spiritually present, in defiance of space - and fond recollections cherished in defiance of time.
Samuel Lover
Image
I like cinema. I am very fond of it. But from time to time I feel like having some time on my own.
Patrice Leconte
Image
I was named Margaret Yvonne - Margaret because my mother was very fond of one of the derivatives of the name. She was fascinated at the time by the movie star Baby Peggy, and I suppose she wanted a Baby Peggy of her own.
Yvonne De Carlo
Image
I was always fond of visiting new scenes, and observing strange characters and manners. Even when a mere child I began my travels, and made many tours of discovery into foreign parts and unknown regions of my native city, to the frequent alarm of my parents, and the emolument of the town-crier.
Washington Irving
Image
How dear to my heart are the scenes of my childhood, When fond recollection recalls them to view The orchard, the meadow, the deep-tangled wildwood, And every loved spot which my infancy knew.
Samuel Woodworth
