Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

    School-days, I believe, are the unhappiest in the whole span of human existence. They are full of dull, unintelligible tasks, new and unpleasant ordinances, brutal violations of common sense and common decency. It doesn’t take a reasonably bright boy long to discover that most of what is rammed into him is nonsense, and that no one really cares very much whether he learns it or not.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Traveller take heed for journeys undertaken in the dark of the year.
    Go in the bright blaze of Autumn’s equinox.
    Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)

    She tossed her bright hair;
    John Streeter Manifold (b. 1915)
