A mother takes twenty years to make a man of her boy, and another woman makes a fool of him in twenty minutes.

Meditate nothing. Learn to contemplate. Contemplate glory. There will be a light. Contemplate Truth until it burns your eyes out.

An idea comes as near to something for nothing as you can get.

Life is tons of discipline.

The sun was warm but the wind was chill. You know how it is with an April day. When the sun is out and the wind is still, You're one month on in the middle of May. But if you so much as dare to speak, a cloud come over the sunlit arch, And wind comes off a frozen peak, And you're two months back in the middle of March.

Image
But he had gone his way, the grass all mown, And I must be, as he had been - alone, As all must be, I said within my heart, Whether they work together or apart.
Robert Frost
Image
There is much in nature against us. But we forget: Take nature altogether since time began, Including human nature, in peace and war, And it must be a little more in favor of man.
Robert Frost
Image
I don't like to see things on purpose. I like them to soak in. A friend . . . asked me to go to the top of the Empire State Building once, and I told him that he shouldn't treat New York as a sight-it's feeling, an emotional experience. And the same with every place else.

Two roads diverged in a wood and I - I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost
Image
Some spirit to stand simply forth, Heroic in its nakedness, Against the uttermost of earth.

There are tones of voices that mean more than words.

Education doesn't change life much. It just lifts trouble to a higher plane of regard.

We get twitted now and then on how we made this country. Well, we took the whole business, of course. It's not just that corner that we took from Mexico. When we got it all together, we got a very shapely country-the best continental cut in all the world, between the two oceans and in the right temperature zone.

I am not a teacher. I am an awakener.
