David Knopfler, British Musician (1952-  )
I fancy our chances at the European Championships.
Frank Lampard, English Athlete (1978-  )
We often fancy that we suffer from ingratitude, while in reality we suffer from self-love.
Walter Savage Landor, English Poet (1775-1864)

James Longstreet, American Soldier (1821-1904)
It would be nice to say the rich people, the fancy people, all behaved like bastards and the poor slobs all came through like heroes. But as a matter of fact, sometimes the poor slobs behave like slobs and the great, noble, privileged characters come off very well, indeed.

Nobody has money right now. And eating is very important, but it doesn't need to be expensive. And to make - it doesn't need to be fancy, as long as it's fresh and simple. The simpler it is, the more fancy it actually comes out tasting.
Debi Mazar, American Actress (1964-  )
I don't know why you use a fancy French word like detente when there's a good English phrase for it - cold war.

Its Arsenal 0 - Everton 1, and the longer it stays like that the more you've got to fancy Everton.

Gerry Mulligan, American Musician (1927-1996)
You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style.
Vladimir Nabokov, American Novelist (1899-1977)
Buonaparte has often made his boast that our fleet would be worn out by keeping the sea and that his was kept in order and increasing by staying in port; but know he finds, I fancy, if Emperors hear the truth, that his fleet suffers more in a night than ours in one year.
Horatio Nelson, British Soldier (1758-1805)
A fancy watch, it's completely unnecessary. I just need a watch to tell the right time.
Judd Nelson, American Actor (1959-  )
I'd rather have a real South Dakotan who has lived in this state and made her living here instead of someone with a fancy East Coast law degree any day.
Kristi Noem, American Politician (1971-  )
We need to steer clear of this poverty of ambition, where people want to drive fancy cars and wear nice clothes and live in nice apartments but don't want to work hard to accomplish these things. Everyone should try to realize their full potential.

Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.
