Robert Frost
Image
The best thing we're put here for's to see The strongest thing that's given us to see with's a telescope. Someone in every town, seems to me, owes it to the town to keep one.

An idea comes as near to something for nothing as you can get.
Robert Frost
Image
The sun was warm but the wind was chill. You know how it is with an April day.
Robert Frost
Image
The best way to hate is the worst. 'Tis to find what the hated need, Never mind of what actual worth, And wipe that out of the earth. Let them die of unsatisfied greed.
Robert Frost
Image
An idea is a feat of association.
Robert Frost
Image
Of all crimes the worst Is to steal the glory From the great and brave, Even more accursed Than to rob the grave.
Robert Frost
Image
New is a word for fools in towns who think Style upon style in dress and thought at last Must get somewhere.

When I see birches bend to left and right... I like to think some boy's been swinging them.
