Robinson Fought

Famous quotes containing the words robinson and/or fought:

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

    I wasn’t born to be a fighter. I was born with a gentle nature, a flexible character and an organism as equilibrated as it is judged hysterical. I shouldn’t have been forced to fight constantly and ferociously. The causes I have fought for have invariably been causes that should have been gained by a delicate suggestion. Since they never were, I made myself into a fighter.
    Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
