Your old-fashioned tirade—
More quotes by Robert Lowell
If we see light at the end of the tunnel,
It's the light of the oncoming train.
We are like a lot of wild
spiders crying together,
but without tears.
We are poor passing facts,
warned by that to give
each figure in the photograph
his living name.
You may also like
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
