Robinson Fought

Famous quotes containing the words robinson and/or fought:

    A thousand golden sheaves were lying there,
    Shining and still, but not for long to stay—
    As if a thousand girls with golden hair
    Might rise from where they slept and go away.
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    He fought the might of England
    And saved the Irish poor,
    Whatever good a farmer’s got
    He brought it all to pass;
    And here’s another reason,
    That Parnell loved a lass.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
