Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

    In early days, I tried not to give librarians any trouble, which was where I made my primary mistake. Librarians like to be given trouble; they exist for it, they are geared to it. For the location of a mislaid volume, an uncatalogued item, your good librarian has a ferret’s nose. Give her a scent and she jumps the leash, her eye bright with battle.
    Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)

    She ran down the stair
    A twelve-year-old darling
    And laughing and calling
    She tossed her bright hair;
    John Streeter Manifold (b. 1915)

    the loose fragrant cavendish
    and the shag,
    And the bright Virginia
    loose under the bright glass cases,
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
