Famous quotes by amy lowell:

    All books are either dreams or swords,
    You can cut, or you can drug, with words.

    Time! Joyless emblem of the greed
    Of millions, robber of the best
    Which earth can give ...

    I am very like to swoon
    With the weight of this brocade,
    For the sun sifts through the shade.

    Because it is my country
    And I speak to it of itself
    And sing of it with my own voice
    Since certainly it is mine.
