"'I'll have done best, unlike Keats, if I've 'stayed upon the green shore, and piped a silly pipe, and took tea and comfortable advice.'
"I had no idea where he found that quote, and didn't inquire." (p. 38)
But I googled it. See here.
It continues to be a blast.
And see Keats, "Endymion," here.

Kaor, Paul!
I knew Kipling and Shakespeare were among Anderson's favorite poets, and he quoted others like Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Now we have to include John Keats among them. I read "Endymion" and will look up Keats.
