More quotes by Robert Frost
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
The best way for a person to have happy thoughts is to count his blessings and not his cash. Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
Robert Frost
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.
Robert Frost
There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate.
Robert Frost
One aged man - one man - can't fill a house.
Robert Frost

Robert Frost
He is all pine and I am apple orchard. My apple trees will never get across And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him. He only says, Good fences make good neighbors.
Robert Frost

Robert Frost
I have wished a bird would fly away, And not sing by my house all day Have clapped my hands at him from the door When it seemed as if I could bear no more. The fault must partly have been in me. The bird was not to blame for his key. And of course there must be something wrong In wanting to silence any song.
Robert Frost
Nothing can make injustice just but mercy.
Robert Frost
Yes, and even for the past...that it will turn out to have been all right for what it was. Something I can accept. Mistakes made by the self I had to be or was not able to be.
Robert Frost
If society fits you comfortably enough, you call it freedom.
Robert Frost
Freedom lies in being bold.
Robert Frost
Not yesterday I learned to know The love of bare November days Before the coming of the snow.
Robert Frost
Americans are like a rich father who wishes he knew how to give his son the hardships that made him rich.
Robert Frost
Education doesn't change life much. It just lifts trouble to a higher plane of regard.
Robert Frost
There are tones of voices that mean more than words.
