If one by one we counted people out For the least sin, it wouldn't take us long To get so we had no one left to live with. For to be social is to be forgiving.

Meditate nothing. Learn to contemplate. Contemplate glory. There will be a light. Contemplate Truth until it burns your eyes out.
Robert Frost
The difference between a job and a career is the difference between forty and sixty hours a week.
Robert Frost
The ear is the only true writer and the only true reader. I know people who read without hearing the sentence sounds and they were the fastest readers. Eye readers we call them. They get the meaning by glances. But they are bad readers because they miss the best part of what a good writer puts into his work.
Robert Frost

Robert Frost
When I was young my teachers were the old. I gave up fire for form till I was cold.
Robert Frost
Always fall in with what you're asked to accept. Take what is given, and make it over your way. My aim in life has always been to hold my own with whatever's going. Not against: with.
Robert Frost
Take care to sell your horse before he dies. The art of life is passing losses on.
Robert Frost
Life must be kept up at a great rate in order to absorb any considerable amount of learning.
Robert Frost
A jury consists of twelve persons chosen to decide who has the better lawyer.
Robert Frost
Half the world is composed of people who have something to say and can't, and the other half who have nothing to say and keep on saying it.
Robert Frost
You, of course, are a rose-- But were always a rose.
Robert Frost
We disparage reason. But all the time it's what we're most concerned with. There's will as motor and there's will as brakes. Reason is, I suppose, the steering gear.
