Dylan Thomas Quotes

Do not go gently into that good night but rage, rage against the dying of the light Picture Quote #1

My tears are like the quiet drift of petals from some magic rose; and all my grief flows from the rift of unremembered skies and snows. I think that if I touched the earth, it would crumble; it is so sad and beautiful, so tremulously like a dream Picture Quote #1

This poem has been called obscure. I refuse to believe that it is obscurer than pity, violence, or suffering. But being a poem, not a lifetime, it is more compressed Picture Quote #1

Though they go mad they shall be sane, though they sink through the sea they shall rise again; though lovers be lost love shall not; and death shall have no dominion Picture Quote #1

I know we’re not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don’t know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don’t care that we don’t Picture Quote #1

And you, my father, there on the sad height, curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light Picture Quote #1

Do you serve women at this bar? No, says the barman, you’ve got to bring your own Picture Quote #1

Used to think that once a writer became a man of letters, if only for a half hour, he was done for. And here I am now, at the very moment of such an odious, though respectable, danger Picture Quote #1

The condition of the world today is such that most writers feel they cannot truthfully be comic about it Picture Quote #1

I’ve been influenced by poets as diverse as Dylan Thomas, Lewis Carroll, and Edgar Allan Poe Picture Quote #1

There’s one of my new poems actually - is a good example of where my poetry has ended up. My earlier river poetry was more like a cross between Shelley and Dylan Thomas Picture Quote #1

It’s not name dropping, but not many people can say, like me, that they spent the day with the likes of Francis Bacon or that boring drunk Dylan Thomas. You don’t forget things like that Picture Quote #1

I’m not Welsh and I didn’t know that much about Dylan Thomas , and I saw that he’s a huge icon of Welsh-ness Picture Quote #1

I’m not as self-destructive as Dylan Thomas, but I’ve certainly been around that behavior enough to have found it a release. The thing that I really enjoyed was being able to play misery Picture Quote #1
