Robert Frost
An idea is a feat of association.
Robert Frost
You have freedom when you're easy in your harness.
Robert Frost
I don't like to see things on purpose. I like them to soak in. A friend . . . asked me to go to the top of the Empire State Building once, and I told him that he shouldn't treat New York as a sight-it's feeling, an emotional experience. And the same with every place else.
Robert Frost
What is done is done for the love of it- or not really done at all.
Robert Frost
Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
