Robinson

Famous quotes containing the word robinson:

“Passion is here a soilure of the wits,
We’re told, and Love a cross for them to bear;
Joy shivers in the corner where she knits
And Conscience always has the rocking-chair,
Cheerful as when she tortured into fits
The first cat that was ever killed by Care.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

“If he go on too far to find a grave,
Mostly alone he goes.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

“They are all gone away,
The house is shut and still,
There is nothing more to say.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
