Richard Wilbur Quote

Spare us all word of the weapons, their force and range,
The long numbers that rocket the mind.


'Advice to a Prophet' (1961)


Spare us all word of the weapons, their force and range, The long numbers that rocket the mind.

Spare us all word of the weapons, their force and range, The long numbers that rocket the mind.

Spare us all word of the weapons, their force and range, The long numbers that rocket the mind.

Spare us all word of the weapons, their force and range, The long numbers that rocket the mind.
