Poetry Quote by Robert Frost — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“But no, I was out for stars:”

“Keats mourned that the rainbow, which as a boy had been for him a magic thing, had lost its glory because the physicists had found it resulted merely from the refraction of the sunlight by the raindrops. Yet knowledge of its causation could not spoil the rainbow for me. I am sure that it is not given to man to be omniscient. There will always be something left to know, something to excite the imagination of the poet and those attuned to the great world in which they live (p. 64)”

““Ah, when to the heart of man”

“The best way out is always through.”

““The heart can think of no devotion”

“A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness.”

“Language has not the power to speak what love indites”

“The minds of others I know well;”

“Where music thundered let the mind be still,”

“Not everything can be felt and not everything will be ever understood.”

“Beauties in vain their pretty eyes may roll;”

“I asked him then: 'What are you after?'”
