The stones that Critics hurl with Harsh Intent, A Man may use to build a Monument
More Quotes from Arthur Guiterman:
On the Vanity of Earthly Greatness The tusks that clashed in mighty brawls of mastodons, are billiard balls. The sword of Charlemagne the Just Is ferric oxide, known as rust. The grizzly bear whose potent hug Was feared by all, is now a rug. Great Caesar's bust is on the shelf, And I don't feel so well myself.Arthur Guiterman
Don't tell your friends about your indigestion. "How are you" is a greeting, not a question.

THE DOG'S COLD NOSE ...a poem When Noah, perceiving 'twas time to embark, Persuaded the creatures to enter the Ark, The dog, with a friendliness truly sublime, Assisted in herding them. Two at a time He drove in the elephants, zebras and gnus Until they were packed like a boxful of screws, The cat in the cupboard, the mouse on the shelf, The bug in the crack then he backed in himself. But such was the lack of available space He couldn't tuck all of him into the place So after the waters had flooded the plain And down from the heavens fell blankets of rain He stood with his muzzle thrust out through the door The whole forty days of that terrible pour Because of which drenching, zoologists hold, The nose of a healthy dog always is cold.

The porcupine, whom we must handle gloved, may be respected, but is never loved.

Husband and Wife Whatever I said and whatever you said, I love you. The word and the moment forever have fled I love you. The breezes may ruffle the stream in its flow, But tranquil and clear are the waters below And under all tumult you feel and you know I love you. Whatever you did and whatever I did, I love you. Whatever is open, whatever is hid, I love you. The strength of the oak makes the tempest a mock, The anchor holds firm in the hurricane's shock Our love is the anchor, the oak and the rock. I love you. Whatever I thought and whatever you thought, I love you. The mood and the passion that made it are naught I love you. For words, thoughts and deeds, though they rankle and smart, May never delude us or hold us apart Who treasure this talisman deep in the heart 'I love you.'
