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.

More quotes by Robert Frost
The problem for the King is just how strict The lack of liberty, the squeeze of the law And discipline should be in school and state.
Robert Frost
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.
Robert Frost
I'd like to get away from earth awhile And then come back to it and begin over. May no fate wilfully misunderstand me And half grant what I wish and snatch me away Not to return. Earth's the right place for love: I don't know where it's likely to go better.
Robert Frost
The ear is the only true writer and the only true reader.
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
Let cloud shapes swarm, / Let chaos storm, / I wait for form.
Robert Frost
Nature's never quite Sure she hasn't erred In her vague design.
Robert Frost
Life is tons of discipline.
Robert Frost
I never feel more at home than at a ballgame.
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
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep but I have promises to keep...
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
Affection is an overpowering craving to be compellingly sought.
Robert Frost
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.
Robert Frost
They would not find me changed from him they knew - only more sure of all I thought was true.
Robert Frost
The trees that have it in their pent-up buds To darken nature and be summer woods.
Robert Frost
To be social is to be forgiving.
Robert Frost
No, in country money, the country scale of gain, The requisite lift of spirit has never been found.
Robert Frost
Of course there is matter for remark in poems. Nobody denies that. But it must be solemnly laid on everybody in this world to make his own observations and remarks. That's what we mean by thinking, and that's about all we mean. A teacher says to a pupil Watch me notice a few things in the next few months: let's see you notice a few things too.
Robert Frost
You can't get too much winter in the winter.
