Famous quotes containing the word bright:
“She ran down the stair
A twelve-year-old darling
And laughing and calling
She tossed her bright hair;”
—John Streeter Manifold (b. 1915)
“The boy stood on the burning deck,
Whence all but he had fled;
The flame that lit the battles wreck,
Shone round him oer the dead.
Yet beautiful and bright he stood,
As born to rule the storm;
A creature of heroic blood,
A proud though childlike form.”
—Felicia Dorothea Hemans (17831835)
“Do you know why I came to you, Amy? Why I came to be your friend? Because you called to me. Out of your loneliness you called me and brought me into being. And I came, so that your childhood could be bright and full of friendliness. Now you must send me away.... Youll remember me for a while, mourn a little, but then youll forget. And that is as it should be.”
—Dewitt Bodeen (19081988)
