Quotes by Horace Gregory
Mediocrity is not allowed to poets, either by the gods or man.
A word once uttered can never be recalled.
I hate the irreverent rabble and keep them far from me.
Wisdom is not wisdom when it is derived from books alone.
It is when I struggle to be brief that I become obscure.
Why harass with eternal purposes a mind to weak to grasp them?
In adversity remember to keep an even mind.
