LOL
Hey I've been misquoted!

More quotes from The Quote Lady

"He hoped and prayed that there wasn't an afterlife. Then he realized there was a contradiction involved here and merely hoped that there wasn't an afterlife."
-Douglas Adams

"The beauty of religious mania is that it has the power to explain everything. Once God (or Satan) is accepted as the first cause of everything which happens in the mortal world, nothing is left to chance...logic can be happily tossed out the window."
-Stephen King

I've heard that Frost is being ironic here -- i.e., if you read the whole poem, you discover that taking the road less travelled made *no* difference.

I know..but I always liked those two lines.

I have the bad habit of taking things out of context.

gee I should have paid more attention
in American Literature class..

It didn't make any difference?

I've seen it quoted several times
and always thought it made a difference.

Hello Doubting Thomas/Darwin's Finch. Thank you for the welcome.

I'm usually hiding out in the Miscellaneous Forums.
