Bright

Famous quotes containing the word bright:

    We forget cruelty and past betrayal,
    Heedless of where the next bright bolt may fall.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    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)

    the loose fragrant cavendish
    and the shag,
    And the bright Virginia
    loose under the bright glass cases,
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
