Famous quotes containing the word flash:
“We not only grew up on Be-Bop; Be-Bop raised us. For my generation, Be-Bop came on like a light bulb going flash behind the eyes. For us, it was not only an intellectual movement, but a way of life. We walked, dressed, and rapped Be-Bop.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“We cannot know how much we learn
From those who never will return,
Until a flash of unforeseen
Remembrance falls on what has been.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (18691935)
“The most welcome joke to me is the one that takes the place of a heavy, not altogether innocuous thought, at once a cautionary hint of the finger and a flash of the eye.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
