Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

“The boy stood on the burning deck,
Whence all but he had fled;
The flame that lit the battle’s wreck,
Shone round him o’er the dead.

Yet beautiful and bright he stood,
As born to rule the storm;
A creature of heroic blood,
A proud though childlike form.”
—Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)

“The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home;
‘Tis summer, the darkeys are gay;
The corn-top’s ripe, and the meadow’s in the bloom,”
—Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1884)

“I’m bored to extinction with Harrison.
His limericks and puns are embarrassing.
But I’m fond of the bum,
For, though dull as they come,
He makes me feel bright by comparison.”
—Anonymous.
