But far, oh, far as passionate eye can reach, And long, ah, long as rapturous eye can cling, The world is mine: blue hill, still silver lake, Broad field, bright flower, and the long white road. A gateless garden, and an open path: My feet to follow, and my heart to hold. Edna St. Vincent Millay

The world stands out on either side No wider than the heart is wide; Above the world is stretched the sky,---No higher than the soul is high.

I would I were alive again. To kiss the fingers of the rain, To drink into my eyes the shine. Of every slanting silver line, To catch the freshened, fragrant breeze. From drenched and dripping apple-trees. For soon the shower will be done, And then the broad face of the sun. Will laugh above the rain-soaked earth. Until the world with answering mirth. Shakes joyously, and each round drop. Rolls twinkling, from its grass-blade top. Edna St. Vincent Millay
Cruel of heart, lay down my song. Your reading eyes have done me wrong. Not for you was the pen bitten, And the mind wrung, and the song written. Edna St. Vincent Millay
We were so wholly one I had not thought That we could die apart. I had not thought That I could move,—and you be stiff and still! That I could speak,—and you perforce be dumb! I think our heart-strings were, like warp and woof In some firm fabric, woven in and out; Your golden filaments in fair design Across my duller fibre. Edna St. Vincent Millay
Stranger, pause and look; From the dust of ages. Lift this little book, Turn the tattered pages, Read me, do not let me die! Search the fading letters finding. Steadfast in the broken binding. All that once was I! Edna St. Vincent Millay
Edna St. Vincent Millay quote: "Please give me some good advice in your next letter. I promise..."
Please give me some good advice in your next letter. I promise not to follow it. Edna St. Vincent Millay
I dread no more the first white in my hair, Or even age itself, the easy shoe, The cane, the wrinkled hands, the special chair: Time, doing this to me, may alter too. My anguish, into something I can bear Edna St. Vincent Millay
What the customer demands is last year's model, cheaper. To find out what the customer needs you have to understand what the customer is doing as well as he understands it. Then you build what he needs and you educate him to the fact that he needs it. Edna St. Vincent Millay
Edna St. Vincent Millay quote: "A person who publishes a book appears willfully in public eye..."
A person who publishes a book appears willfully in public eye with his pants down. Edna St. Vincent Millay
I am glad that I paid so little attention to good advice; had I abided by it I might have been saved from some of my most valuable mistakes. Edna St. Vincent Millay
