Robinson Fought

Famous quotes containing the words robinson and/or fought:

    But what she meets and what she fears
    Are less than are the downward years,
    Drawn slowly to the foamless weirs
    Of age, were she to lose him.
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    I’ve never forgotten for long at a time that living is struggle. I know that every good and excellent thing in the world stands moment by moment on the razor-edge of danger and must be fought for—whether it’s a field, or a home, or a country.
    Thornton Wilder (1897–1975)
