Famous quotes containing the word memory:
“No memory of having starred
Atones for later disregard,
Or keeps the end from being hard.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“I regard a love for poetry as one of the most needful and helpful elements in the life- outfit of a human being. It was the greatest of blessings to me, in the long days of toil to which I was shut in much earlier than most young girls are, that the poetry I held in my memory breathed its enchanted atmosphere through me and around me, and touched even dull drudgery with its sunshine.”
—Lucy Larcom (18241893)
