    And we, with all our wounds and all our powers,
    Must each await alone at his own height
    Another darkness or another light;
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    I watched him; and the sight was not so fair
    As one or two that I have seen elsewhere:
    An apparatus not for me to mend—
    A wreck, with hell between him and the end.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    —C.E.M. (Cyril Edwin Mitchinson)

    For through it all—above, beyond it all—
    I know the far-sent message of the years,
    I feel the coming glory of the Light.
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    Never mind if you fall far short of the thing you want to do,—encourage your effort. If no one else will say it to you, say it to yourself. “Not so bad.” It will make the next effort easier and better.
    —Josephine Demott Robinson (1865–1948)

    It is written, “My house shall be called a house of prayer”; but you are making it a den of robbers.
