Famous quotes containing the words bright and/or star:

    “She speaks!
    O, speak again, bright angel, for thou art
    As glorious to this night, being o’er my head,
    As is a wingèd messenger of heaven ...”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
    —C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
