Additional quotes by Amy Lowell

A motor-car cuts a swathe through the bright air, sharp-beaked, irresistible, shouting to the wind to make way.

The very heart and core of ages past,
The reason why men lived and worked and died,
The essence and quintessence of their lives.

For I have time for nothing But the endeavour to balance myself Upon a broken world. - Amy Lowell
