If so men's memories not a monument be, None shalt thou have. Warm hearts, and not cold stone, Must mark thy grave, or thou shalt lie, unknown. Marbles keep not themselves how then, keep thee?

More quotes by John Vance Cheney
The wind is awake, pretty leave, pretty leaves, Heed not what he says, he deceives, he deceives Over and over To the lowly clover He has lisped the same love (and forgotten it, too). He will be lisping and pledging to you.
John Vance Cheney
A breath, whence no man knows, Swaying the grating weeds, it blows It comes, it grieves, it goes. Once it rocked the summer rose.
John Vance Cheney
The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears.
John Vance Cheney
I question not if thrushes sing, If roses load the air Beyond my heart I need not reach When all is summer there.
