Famous quotes containing the words nick and/or robinson:

    In any weather, at any hour of the day or night, I have been anxious to improve the nick of time, and notch it on my stick too; to stand on the meeting of two eternities, the past and the future, which is precisely the present moment; to toe that line.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A thousand golden sheaves were lying there,
    Shining and still, but not for long to stay—
    As if a thousand girls with golden hair
    Might rise from where they slept and go away.
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
