No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. No surprise... - Robert Frost

"Two roads diverged in a wood and I - I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference."

"A poem begins with a lump in the throat; a homesickness or a love sickness. It is a reaching-out toward expression; an effort to find fulfillment. A complete poem is one where an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words."

"For dear me, why abandon a beliefMerely because it ceases to be true"

"To be a poet is a condition, not a profession."
