Robert Frost
Don't be agnostic - be something.
Robert Frost
They would not find me changed from him they knew - only more sure of all I thought was true.
Robert Frost
When I was young, I was so interested in baseball that my family was afraid I'd waste my life and be a pitcher. Later they were afraid I'd waste my life and be a poet. They were right.
