More From Robert Frost

For me the initial delight is in the surprise of remembering something i didn't know i knew. i have never started a poem yet whose end i knew.
Art Writing Poetry
O lust, thou infernal fire, whose fuel is gluttony; whose flame is pride, whose sparkles are wanton words; whose smoke is infamy; whose ashes are uncleanness; whose end is hell.
Pride Fire Flames
I keep feeling that there isn't one poem being written by any one of us - or a book or anything like that. the whole life of us writers, the whole product i guess i mean, is the one long poem - a community effort if you will. it's all the same poem. it doesn't belong to any one writer - it's god's poem perhaps. or god's people's poem.
Book Mean Long
I have a hard time writing. most writers have a hard time writing. i have a harder time than most because i'm lazier than most. [...] the other problem i have is fear of writing. the act of writing puts you in confrontation with yourself, which is why i think writers assiduously avoid writing. [...] not writing is more of a psychological problem than a writing problem. all the time i'm not writing i feel like a criminal. [...] it's horrible to feel felonious every second of the day. especially when it goes on for years. it's much more relaxing actually to work.
Writing Hard Times Thinking
Friends now fast sworn, whose double bosoms seems to wear one heart, whose hours, whose bed, whose meal and exercise are still together, who twin, as 'twere, in love, unseparable, shall within this hour, on a dissension of a doit, break out to bitterest enmity; so fellest foes, whose passions and whose plots have broke their sleep to take the one the other, by some chance, some trick not worth an egg, shall grow dear friends and interjoin their issues.
Passion Heart Sleep
There has to be some mystery in life, because the joy of being a writer and the joy of being a musician is the joy of discovery. i don't want someone discovering for me what i should be discovering on my own. if a person is discovering for me, then they're living for me. it's my responsibility, indeed it's my privilege, to go out and discover the world for myself.

It shouldn't be the consumer's responsibility to figure out what's cruel and what's kind, what's environmentally destructive and what's sustainable. cruel and destructive food products should be illegal. we don't need the option of buying children's toys made with lead paint, or aerosols with chlorofluorocarbons, or medicines with unlabeled side effects. and we don't need the option of buying factory-farmed animals.

Countrymen, the task ahead is great indeed, and heavy is the responsibility; and yet it is a noble and glorious challenge - a challenge which calls for the courage to dream, the courage to believe, the courage to dare, the courage to do, the courage to envision, the courage to fight, the courage to work, the courage to achieve - to achieve the highest excellencies and the fullest greatness of man. dare we ask for more in life?
Dream Believe Responsibility
A tiny blue dot set in a sunbeam. here it is. that's where we live. that's home. we humans are one species and this is our world. it is our responsibility to cherish it. of all the worlds in our solar system, the only one so far as we know, graced by life.
