Literary Garden of Quotations

This literary garden of quotations was made possible through the generosity of Dr. Fred L. Standley, BA '54 and Jayne M. Standley. "The greatest gift is the passion for reading. It is cheap, it consoles, it distracts, it excites, it gives you knowledge of the world and experience of a wide kind. It is moral illumination." Elizabeth Hardwick.

Back to the street where we began

Feeling as good as lovers can, you know

Yeah, we're feeling so good

Picking up things we shouldn't read

It looks like the end of history as we know

It's just the end of the world

Back to the street where we began

Feeling as good as love

You could, you can

Into a place, where thoughts can bloom

Into a room where it's nine in the afternoon

And we know that it could be

And we know that it should

And you know that you feel it too

'Cause it's nine in the afternoon

Your eyes are the size of the moon

You could 'cause you can, so you do

We're feeling so good

Just the way that we do

When it's nine in the afternoon

Your eyes are the size of the moon

You could 'cause you can, so you do

We're feeling so good

Back to the street

Down to our feet

Losing the feeling of feeling unique

Do you know what I mean?

Back to the place

Where we used to say

Man, it feels good to feel this way

Now I know what I mean

Back to the street, back to the place

Back to the room where it all began

Back to the room where it all began

Cause it's nine in the afternoon

Your eyes are the size of the moon

You could 'cause you can, so you do

We're feeling so good

Just the way that we do

When it's nine in the afternoon (x3)

I turned and looked back up at the sky,

Where we still look to ask the why

Of everything below.

Robert Frost

Wherever it is dark, there is the potential for stars. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
