Famous quotes by edwin arlington robinson:

    I watched him; and the sight was not so fair
    As one or two that I have seen elsewhere:
    An apparatus not for me to mend—
    A wreck, with hell between him and the end.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    Now view yourself as I was, on the spot—
    With a slight kind of engine. Do you see?
    Like this . . . You wouldn’t hang me? I thought not.’
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    They are all gone away,
    The house is shut and still,
    There is nothing more to say.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    And at his heart there may have gnawed
    Sick memories of a dead faith foiled and flawed
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
