And were an epitaph to be my story,
Robert Frost (1874-1963) American poet
I’d have a short one ready for my own.
I would have written of me on my stone:
I had a lover’s quarrel with the world.
“The Lesson for Today,” A Witness Tree (1942)
Initially read before the Phi Beta Kappa Society, Harvard (20 Jun 1941)
