More quotes by Robert Frost
Fortunately, we don't need to know how bad an age is. There is something we can always be doing without reference to how good or bad the age is.
Robert Frost
All the fun is in how you say a thing.
Robert Frost
Let those possess the land, and only those, Who love it with a love so strong and stupid That they may be abused and taken advantage of And made fun of by business, law, and art.
Robert Frost
The sun was warm but the wind was chill. You know how it is with an April day.
Robert Frost
You can't trust God to be unmerciful. There you have the beginning of all wisdom.
Robert Frost
Let cloud shapes swarm, / Let chaos storm, / I wait for form.
Robert Frost
Always fall in with what you're asked to accept. Take what is given, and make it over your way. My aim in life has always been to hold my own with whatever's going. Not against: with.
Robert Frost
If one by one we counted people out For the least sin, it wouldn't take us long To get so we had no one left to live with. For to be social is to be forgiving.
Robert Frost
Nothing flatters me more than to have it assumed that I could write prose, unless it be to have it assumed that I once pitched a baseball with distinction.
Robert Frost
Possessing what we still were unpossessed by, Possessed by what we now no more possessed.
Robert Frost
Oh, come forth into the storm and rout And be my love in the rain.
Robert Frost
The strongest and most effective force in guaranteeing the long-term maintenance of power is not violence in all the forms deployed by the dominant to control the dominated, but consent in all the forms in which the dominated acquiesce in their own domination.
Robert Frost
When I was young my teachers were the old. I gave up fire for form till I was cold.
Robert Frost
One age is like another for the soul.
Robert Frost
Nature is always hinting at us. It hints over and over again. And suddenly we take the hint.
Robert Frost
The truth is the river flows into the canyon Of Ceasing-to-Question-What-Doesn't-Concern-Us, As sooner or later we have to cease somewhere.
Robert Frost
There would be more than ocean-water broken Before God's last Put out the Light was spoken.
Robert Frost
A mother takes twenty years to make a man of her boy, and another woman makes a fool of him in twenty minutes.
Robert Frost
Summary riposte To the dreary wail There's no knowing what Love is all about. Poets know a lot.
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
