Our life runs down in sending up the clock. The brook runs down in sending up our life. The sun runs down in sending up the brook. And there is something sending up the sun.
Robert Frost
Writing free verse is like playing tennis with the net down.
Robert Frost
There are tones of voices that mean more than words.
Robert Frost
A name with meaning could bring up a child, Taking the child out of the parents' hands. Better a meaningless name, I should say, As leaving more to nature and happy chance. Name children some names and see what you do.
Robert Frost
At bottom the world isn't a joke. We only joke about it to avoid an issue with someone, to let someone know that we know he's there with his questions to disarm him by seeming to have heard and done justice to his side of the standing argument.

Robert Frost

Robert Frost
People who read me seem to be divided into four groups: twenty-five percent like me for the right reasons twenty-five percent like me for the wrong reasons twenty-five percent hate me for the wrong reasons twenty-five percent hate me for the right reasons. It's that last twenty-five percent that worries me.
Robert Frost
Keep all ur troubles in ur own pocket. But, make sure that the pocket has a hole!
Robert Frost
Man that is of woman born is apt to be as vain has his mother.
Robert Frost
Nature does not complete things. She is chaotic. Man must finish, and he does so by making a garden and building a wall.
Robert Frost
The first thing I do in the morning is to make my bed and while I am making up my bed I am making up my mind as to what kind of a day I am going to have.
Robert Frost
What is this talked-of mystery of birth. But being mounted bareback on the earth?
Robert Frost
No memory of having starred atones for later disregard, or keeps the end from being hard.
Robert Frost
The only way out is to go through
Robert Frost
Why make so much of fragmentary blue In here and there a bird, or butterfly, Or flower, or wearing-stone, or open eye, When heaven presents in sheets the solid hue?
Robert Frost
