pull down to refresh
Life is a spell so exquisite that everything conspires to break it."
-Emily Dickinson
Robert Frost has been dead for 62 years so it doesn't always go on. Just playing devil's advocate.
He didn't say it goes on forever. He meant that life doesn't stop for anyone.
If nothing saves us from death, at least love should save us from life.
----Pablo Neruda
To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
A robin redbreast in a cage
Puts all heaven in a rage.
A dove-house filled with doves and pigeons
Shudders hell through all its regions.
----William Blake
Hence, viper thoughts, that coil around my mind, Reality's dark dream!
I turn from you, and listen to the wind.
---Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Dejection: An Ode
I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am.
ā Sylvia Plath
In three words, I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.
-- - Robert Frost
