Poetry Quote by Carl Sandburg — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Gather the stars if you wish it so”

“Under the summer roses”

“A man must find time for himself. Time is what we spend our lives with. If we are not careful we find others spending it for us. . . . It is necessary now and then for a man to go away by himself and experience loneliness; to sit on a rock in the forest and to ask of himself, 'Who am I, and where have I been, and where am I going?' . . . If one is not careful, one allows diversions to take up one's time—the stuff of life.”

“Read the dictionary from A to Izzard today.”

“Tell no man anything, for no man listens”

“Nothing happens unless first we dream.”

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

“At least”

“But drunkenly, or secretly, we swore,”

“Gannets”

“Time is all we have and don’t.”

“When Great Trees Fall”
