Bright Lands

Famous quotes containing the words bright and/or lands:

    the trouble lies in pointing
    At any stars. For one’s own finger aims
    Always elsewhere: the man beside one seems
    Never to get the point. “No! The bright star
    Just above my fingertip.”
    John Hollander (b. 1929)

    Joseph, when I had jewels and lands and palaces, I was often weary and discontent. When everything was taken away, except my life, I learned that the way to be really happy is to serve others, to be needed.
    —Adele Comandini. Edward Sutherland. Madam Tanya (Maria Ouspenskaya)
