Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

    Look not into the sun! Even the moon is too bright for your nocturnal eyes!
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Have you seen but a bright lily grow
    Before rude hands have touch’d it?
    Have you mark’d but the fall of the snow
    Before the soil hath smutch’d it?
    Have you felt the wool of the beaver,
    Or swan’s down ever?
    Or have smelt of the bud of the brier,
    Or the nard in the fire?
    Or have tasted the bag of the bee?
    O so white, O so soft, O so sweet is she!
    Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    Waves sparkle and delight
    the weary eyes
    that never saw the sun fall in the sea
    nor the bright Pleiads rise.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
