Jeffers

Famous quotes containing the word jeffers:

    It would be better for men
    To be few and live far apart, where none could infect another; then
    slowly the sanity of field and mountain
    And the cold ocean and glittering stars might enter their minds.
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    While this America settles in the mould of its vulgarity, heavily
    thickening to empire,
    And protest, only a bubble in the molten mass, pops and sighs out,
    and the mass hardens,
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    the splendor without rays, the shining shadow,
    Peace-bringer, the matrix of all shining and quieter of shining.
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
