Bright Light

Famous quotes containing the words bright and/or light:

    To thee, fair Freedom! I retire
    From flattery, cards, and dice, and din:
    Nor art thou found in mansions higher
    Than the low cot, or humble inn.

    ‘Tis here with boundless pow’r I reign;
    And ev’ry health which I begin
    Converts dull port to bright champagne;
    Such Freedom crowns it, at an inn.
    William Shenstone (1714–1763)

    For as change is horror,
    Virtue is really stubbornness
    And only in the light of lost words
    Can we imagine our rewards.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
