Edgar Lee Masters Quotes About Heart

Quotes about: Heart

• This is Darrow, Inadequately scrawled, with his young, old heart, And his drawl, and his infinite paradox And his sadness, and kindness, And his artist sense that drives him to shape his life To something harmonious, even against the schemes of God.

  Kindness, Heart, Sadness

  Edgar Lee Masters, “Clarence Darrow”

• A giant as we hoped, in truth, a dwarf; A barrel of slop that shines on Lethe's wharf', Which at first seemed a vessel with sweet wine For thirsty lips. So down the swift decline You went through sloven spirit, craven heart And cynic indolence. And here the art Of molding clay has caught you for the nonce And made your shame our shame ~ Your head in bronze!

  Edgar Lee Masters

  Sweet, Art, Wine

  Edgar Lee Masters, “On A Bust”

• The earth keeps some vibration going There in your heart, and that is you. And if the people find you can fiddle, why fiddle you must, for all your life.

  Heart, People, Earth
