Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

“Not marble nor the gilded monuments
Of princes shall outlive this powerful rime;
But you shall shine more bright in these contents
Than unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time.
When wasteful war shall statues overturn,
And broils root out the work of masonry,
Nor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn
The living record of your memory.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Thou blossom bright with autumn dew,
And colored with the heaven’s own blue,”
—William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

“Example is a bright looking-glass, universal and for all shapes to look into.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
