Robinson Knocked

Famous quotes containing the words robinson and/or knocked:

    But what she meets and what she fears
    Are less than are the downward years,
    Drawn slowly to the foamless weirs
    Of age, were she to lose him.
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    Out of the sighs a little comes,
    But not of grief, for I have knocked down that
    Before the agony; the spirit grows,
    Forgets, and cries;
    A little comes, is tasted and found good....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
