More quotes by Robert Frost

Robert Frost
They cannot scare me with their empty spaces Between stars—on stars where no human race is. I have it in me so much nearer home To scare myself with my own desert places.
Robert Frost
What is this talked-of mystery of birth. But being mounted bareback on the earth?
Robert Frost
I am not a teacher. I am an awakener.
Robert Frost
