Education of a Wandering Man
Page 21
Something more equal to the centuries
Than muscle and bone, is mostly to shed weakness.
The mountains are dead stone, the people
Admire or hate their stature, their insolent quietness,
The mountains are not softened nor troubled
And a few dead men’s thoughts have the same temper.
—ROBINSON JEFFERS
from “Wise Men in Their Bad Hours”

BIBLIOGRAPHY
