“For she is a fair maiden, fairest lady of a house of queens. And yet I know not how I should speak of her. When I first looked on her and perceived her unhappiness, it seemed to me that I saw a white flower standing straight and proud, shapely as a lily, and yet knew that it was hard, as if wrought by elf-wrights out of steel. Or was it, maybe, a frost that had turned its sap to ice, and so it stood, bitter-sweet, still fair to see, but stricken, soon to fall and die?”
J.R.R. Tolkien

D.H. Lawrence

William Blake
“We want the fairest arrangement we can. There is probably no perfect system.”
Russ Granik
“Frankly, we've done it in the fairest and most cost-effective way we could do it,”
Rick Wagoner
“A wondrous city of fairest carving, reflected in gleaming waters swirled to new patterning by every passing gondola.”
Sylvia Pankhurst
