Poetical Quotes
Getting a little poetical today, even if there is no rhyme nor reason to it (heh, see what I did there… yeah, yeah, I know, I’m terrible, even for pointing that out). Start things off with a well known one by Robert Frost.
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-

And that has made all the difference.
~Robert Frost, 1920

“It is better to look ahead and prepare, than to look back and regret.” ~Jackie Joyner-Kersee

Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu
