Rod McKuen Quotes

I have fallen in love with the world
And I am aware that I have chosen
the most dangerous lover of them all.

Unless you call attention
to your presence
who will know you're there?

Even a country
has to weave and wave a flag
as proof of its existence.

The journey back is always longer than the forward run.

Sometimes I think people were meant to be strangers.
Not to get to know one another,
not to get close enough to damage the heart
made older by each new encounter.
