Robert Frost
(1874–1963)
Anecdote 1...
After a dinner party Robert Frost and the other guests went out onto the veranda
to watch the sunset. "Oh, Mr. Frost, isn't it a lovely sunset?" exclaimed
a young woman. "I never discuss business after dinner," Frost replied.
Anecdote 2...
A journalist once called at Frost's house for an interview. "Do you have one of those
machines—those tape recorders?" asked the poet suspiciously as he opened the door.
"No, sir," replied the journalist. Frost's manner changed instantly.
"Well, come on in!" he cried. "Those people who take down every word never
get anything right."
Biographical Note...
