The best way out is always through. - Robert Frost

"I always entertain great hopes."

"No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. No surprise in the writer, no surprise in the reader."

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

"Humor is the most engaging cowardice."

"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."
