Famous quotes containing the word shining:
“Ask every person if he’s heard the story,
And tell it strong and clear if he has not,
That once there was a fleeting wisp of glory
Called Camelot ...
Don’t let it be forgot
That once there was a spot
For one brief shining moment that was known
As Camelot.”
—Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)

Walk between dark and dark—a shining space
With the grave’s narrowness, though not its peace.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
“One shining quality lends a lustre to another, or hides some glaring defect.”
—William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
