More from Robert Frost
"The best way out is always through."
"You come too. My long scythe whispered and left the hay to make. It was no dream of the gift of idle hours, Or easy gold at the hand of king or queen Or anything but what one's hands can make."
"There are two kinds of teachers: those who fill you with so much that you can't move, and those who give you just a little prod that sets you off in the right direction."
"Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length."
"I am a living man. I have lived to be 86 years old. I have had a great deal of sorrow. I have had a great deal of joy. I have had a great deal of love."
