"These woods are lovely, dark and deep,But I have promises to keep,And miles to go before I sleep,And miles to go before I sleep."

“A poem...begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It is a reaching-out toward expression; an effort to find fulfillment. A complete poem is one where an emotion finds the thought and the thought finds the words.”

“Everything written is as good as it is dramatic. It need not declare itself in form, but it is drama or nothing. A least lyric alone may have a hard time, but it can make a beginning, and lyric will be piled on lyric till all are easily heard as sung or spoken by a person in a scene — in character, in a setting. By whom, where and when is the question.”

“The best way out is always through.”

“Forgive me my nonsense as I also forgive the nonsense of those who think they talk sense.”

“People are inexterminable — like flies and bed-bugs. There will always be some that survive in cracks and crevices — that's us.”

“A collection of poetry by Robert Frost”
