Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

    “Once at thy Feast, I saw thee Pearle-like stand
    ‘Tween Heaven and Earth, where Heavens Bright glory all
    In streams fell on thee, as a floodgate and
    Like Sun Beams through thee on the World to Fall.
    Oh! Sugar sweet then! My Deare sweet Lord, I see
    Saints Heaven-lost Happiness restor’d by thee.”
    —Edward Taylor (1645–1729)

    “A fairly bright boy is far more intelligent and far better company than the average adult.”
    —J.B.S. (John Burdon Sanderson)

    “To recover a buried treasure without having it disappear miraculously in the process, one must be entitled to it, and also be willing—really willing deep in his heart—to share it with the poor and helpless. Buried money, especially silver, gives off a bright glow which comes right up through the earth and can be seen as a dim light on nights when the weather is misty or there is a gentle rain.”
    —Administration in the State of Ariz, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
