Robert Penn Warren Quote

I don't expect you'll hear me writing any poems to the greater glory of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.


On his appointment as the first U.S. poet laureate, in The Washington Post (27 February 1986)


I don't expect you'll hear me writing any poems to the greater glory of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.

I don't expect you'll hear me writing any poems to the greater glory of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.

I don't expect you'll hear me writing any poems to the greater glory of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.

I don't expect you'll hear me writing any poems to the greater glory of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.
