Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

    Every murder turns on a bright hot light, and a lot of people ... have to walk out of the shadows.

    War bent and kissed the forehead,
    that bright brow,
    ignored the chin
    and the sweet mouth,
    for that and the low laugh were his,
    Eros ingratiate.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    To thee, fair Freedom! I retire
    From flattery, cards, and dice, and din:
    Nor art thou found in mansions higher
    Than the low cot, or humble inn.

    ‘Tis here with boundless pow’r I reign;
    And ev’ry health which I begin
    Converts dull port to bright champagne;
    Such Freedom crowns it, at an inn.
    William Shenstone (1714–1763)
