About Robinson Jeffers

John Robinson Jeffers (10 January 1887 – 20 January 1962) was an American poet, whose poetry often presented monist perspectives, transcending personal and particular concerns of human beings, which he eventually labelled as stances of a naturalistic "inhumanism" that he believed was necessary to transcend and diminish many forms of social strife and corruption.

Additional quotes by Robinson Jeffers

Happy people die whole, they are all dissolved in a moment, they have had what they wanted

Stone-cutters fighting time with marble, you fore-defeated Challengers of oblivion Eat cynical earnings, knowing rock splits, records fall down, The square-limbed Roman letters Scale in the thaws, wear in the rain.

There is no reason for amazement: surely one always knew that cultures decay, and life's end is death.

We don't know enough, we'll never know. Oh happy Homer, taking the stars and the Gods for granted. - Robinson Jeffers
