Poetry Quote by Robert W. Service — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I have no doubt at all the Devil grins,”

“Now a promise made is a debt unpaid,”

“Someone I loved once told me that there are fragments within us that are the same age as the universe, and because we are matter, we can never be destroyed. That a part of us will live forever and ever, and that in making us the universe was celebrating itself, we are its living, breathing joy.”

“Good poetry makes the universe reveal a secret.”

“Life is but a day;”

“And would it have been worth it, after all,”

“For you she learned to wear a short black slip”

“If the incision of our words amounts to nothing but a feeling, a slow motion, it will still cut a better swath than the factory model, the corporate model, the penitentiary model, which by my lights are one and the same.”
