The Poetry of Edward Abbey

[freedomfromforum]

-Due Notice-

Beware the weak, the timid, the small:
they are dangerous.

Beware of love-more dangerous (and delicate)
than dynamite.

Beware of thy wishes: they will come true.

Beware of your friends: your enemies you can trust.

Beware of the man who has no enemies.

Beware of wariness, which makes a coward
of conscience.

--Edward Abbey

Well, I agree with the first bit...I've lost more blood to smaller opponents in bar fights than larger. (Them lil' bastages can move!)

OK, I'll admit it...who is Edward Abbey? I've no clue...

I'm not one much for poetry but I did really like Desert Solitaire.
