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

“Flow gently, sweet Afton,”

“But deep this truth impress'd my mind:”

“Wee, sleekit, cowrin, tim'rous beastie,”

“There is no such uncertainty as a sure thing.”

“Some hae meat and canna eat,”

“If you would hit the mark, you must aim a little above it;”

“The poet must be more useful than any other member if his tribe.”

“But often, in the world’s most crowded streets,”

“L'union libre [Freedom of Love]”

“What makes us leave what we love best?”

“If you are a dreamer come in”
