“Between us two its not a star at all.
Its a new patented electric light,
Put up on trial by that Jerseyite
So much is being now expected of....”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“I will not by the noise of bloody wars and the dethroning of kings advance you to glory: but by the gentle ways of peace and love.”

“In the end, for congenial sympathy, for poetry, for work, for original feeling and expression, for perfect companionship with ones friendsgive me the country.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Youve strung your breasts
with a rattling rope of pearls,
tied a jangling belt
around those deadly hips
and clinking jewelled anklets
on both your feet.
So, stupid,
if you run off to your lover like this,
banging all these drums,
then why
do you shudder with all this fear
and look up, down;
in every direction?”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.?, Kashmirian king, compiler, author of some of the poems in the anthology which bears his name. translated from the Amaruataka by Martha Ann Selby, vs. 31, Motilal Banarsidass (1983)
