Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

    Ah! I have penetrated to those meadows on the morning of many a first spring day, jumping from hummock to hummock, from willow root to willow root, when the wild river valley and the woods were bathed in so pure and bright a light as would have waked the dead, if they had been slumbering in their graves, as some suppose. There needs no stronger proof of immortality. All things must live in such a light. O Death, where was thy sting? O Grave, where was thy victory, then?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    O suns and skies and clouds of June,
    And flowers of June together,
    Ye cannot rival for one hour
    October’s bright blue weather.
    Helen Hunt Jackson (1830–1885)

    He looks on the bright side of everything,
    Including me. He thinks I’ll be all right
    With doctoring. But it’s not medicine
    Lowe is the only doctor’s dared to say so
    It’s rest I want there, I have said it out....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
