Bright Angel

Famous quotes containing the words bright and/or angel:

    “War bent and kissed the forehead,
    that bright brow,
    ignored the chin
    and the sweet mouth,
    for that and the low laugh were his,
    Eros ingratiate.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “An innocent man is a sin before God. Inhuman and therefore untrustworthy. No man should live without absorbing the sins of his kind, the foul air of his innocence, even if it did wilt rows of angel trumpets and cause them to fall from their vines.”
    —Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
