Text Quotes
What the mulberry leaf is to the silkworm, the author’s book, treatise, essay, poem, is to the critical larvae that feed upon it. It furnishes them with food and clothing (Poem Quotes)
Like a piece of ice on a hot stove the poem must ride on its own melting. A poem may be worked over once it is in being, but may not be worried into being (Poem Quotes)
With the poem, I reach out to an audience equally at odds with official policy, and I celebrate our mutual humanness in an inhuman world (Poem Quotes)
The greatest poem is not that which is most skillfully constructed, but that in which there is the most poetry (Poem Quotes)
None of you knows what creativity means. To paint a picture, to write a poem? No! To recast one’s whole age, to impose upon it the stamp of one’s will, to fill it with beauty, to overwhelm it, to overpower it with one’s spirit (Poem Quotes)
If you read quickly to get through a poem to what it means, you have missed the body of the poem (Poem Quotes)
But most commonly, it’s one poem that I work on with a lot of intensity (Poem Quotes)
Any fool can take a bad line out of a poem; it takes a real pro to throw out a good line (Poem Quotes)

We hold that the most wonderful and splendid proof of genius is a great poem produced in a civilized age (Poem Quotes)
But in a lot of ways my poems are very conventional, and it’s no big deal for me to write a poem in either free verse or strict form; modern poets can, and do, do both (Poem Quotes)
It took some time to gather the research and develop it into the storyline, and to finally finish an origin myth poem that I had been working on for twenty years (Poem Quotes)
I wrote a staggeringly bad poem when I was 19 after a girlfriend dumped me. I seem to remember comparing her to a tarantula. It was all very E. J. Thribb of me (Poem Quotes)
I find in my own writing that only fiction - and rarely, a poem - fully tests me to the kind of limits of what I know and what I feel (Poem Quotes)
When I write a poem, I go into a state of self-forgetfulness, and something higher takes over; I like to call it my best self (Poem Quotes)
The poem, even a short time after being written, seems no miracle; unwritten, it seems something beyond the capacity of the gods (Poem Quotes)
No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem (Poem Quotes)
No verse is free for the man who wants to do a good job... Poetry.. Remains one person talking to another... No poet can write a poem of amplitude unless he is the master of the prosaic (Poem Quotes)
A poem is good if it contains a new analogy and startles the reader out of the habit of treating words as counters (Poem Quotes)
The unit of significance in the poem is not the word but the phrase or sentence... A poet should consider the effect of the whole poem, not its local felicities (Poem Quotes)
A good religious poem, today, is ambergris, and it is hard to enjoy it for thinking of all those suffering whales; but martyrs are born, not made (Poem Quotes)
It is well sometimes to half understand a poem in the same manner that we half understand the world (Poem Quotes)
I used to try and concentrate the poem so much that there wasn’t a word that wasn’t essential. This leads to becoming boring and constipated (Poem Quotes)
A poem is but a thought, a mere memory caught at play. From hand onto paper, bleeding thoughts emerge (Poem Quotes)
The poem is a cry of the unborn heart. Yes, because the poem perfectly embodies the world, there is no world without poem (Poem Quotes)
You can say a lot more with a poem than you can with a song, but with a song you can really be more powerful with it. You can express it a lot more powerfully (Poem Quotes)
No poem should be an urn to contain a meaning, but a net to catch what meanings float through the day (Poem Quotes)
A landscape painting in which composition is ignored is like a line taken from a poem at random: it lacks context, and may or may not make sense (Poem Quotes)
But the divinest poem, or the life of a great man, is the severest satire... The greater the genius, the keener the edge of the satire (Poem Quotes)
A poem can have an impact, but you can’t expect an audience to understand all the nuances (Poem Quotes)
