Famous quotes containing the word bright:

that bright brow,
ignored the chin
and the sweet mouth,
for that and the low laugh were his,
Eros ingratiate.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

“Your coat in my closet,
your bright stones on my hand,
the gaudy fur animals
I do not know how to use,
settle on me like a debt.”
