The quotations of
US-British poet
1888–1965
49 quotes, most often on Poetry, Life & Death and Courage. Part of the Writers and Poets collections.
Where is the Life we have lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?
After such knowledge, what forgiveness?
What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man, You cannot say, or guess, for you know only A heap of broken images, where the sun beats, And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief, And the dry stone no sound of water.
