Robert Frost
You don't have to deserve your mother's love. You have to deserve your father s. He's more particular. The father is always a Republican towards his son, and his mother's always a Democrat.
Robert Frost
Poetry is the renewal of words, setting them free, and that's what a poet is doing: loosening the words.
Robert Frost
Everything written is as good as it is dramatic. It need not declare itself in form, but it is drama or nothing.
Robert Frost
The rose is a rose, And was always a rose. But the theory now goes That the apple's a rose.
Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a wood and I - I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost
There is no love. There's only love of men and women, love Of children, love of friends, of men, of God: Divine love, human love, parental love, Roughly discriminated for the rough.
Robert Frost
A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness.
Robert Frost
