Text Quotes
Hence poetry is something more philosophic and of graver import than history, since its statements are rather of the nature of universals, whereas those of history are singulars (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular (Poetry Quotes)
The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from science, along with behaviour control, genetic engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry, even when apparently most fantastic, is always a revolt against artifice, a revolt, in a sense, against actuality (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility (Poetry Quotes)
I came to poetry through the urgent need to denounce injustice, exploitation, humiliation. I know that's not enough to change the world. But to remain silent would have been a kind of intolerable complicity (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is emotion put into measure. The emotion must come by nature, but the measure can be acquired by art (Poetry Quotes)
If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can ever warm me, I know that is poetry (Poetry Quotes)
There is no frigate like a book to take us lands away nor any coursers like a page of prancing poetry (Poetry Quotes)
All one's inventions are true, you can be sure of that. Poetry is as exact a science as geometry (Poetry Quotes)
When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is the universal language which the heart holds with nature and itself. He who has a contempt for poetry, cannot have much respect for himself, or for anything else (Poetry Quotes)
When I was in college, I used to write little ditties and short stories and poetry for my friends. Writing a book is another thing. It is so much different from my traditional day of dirty fingernails and greasy hair and hot pans (Poetry Quotes)
It's something we, guys, have all done. Made tapes for girls, trying to impress them, to meet them on a shared plane of aesthetics. Read them someone else's poetry because they do poetry better than you could do it, because you're too awkward to do it (Poetry Quotes)
I'm conscious of a series of circles working its way through my life. And at this particular moment I have come round to the beginning of my writing cycle. It begins with poetry. There's hardly a day that goes past on which I don't write poetry (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry has been to me its own exceeding great reward; it has given me the habit of wishing to discover the good and beautiful in all that meets and surrounds me (Poetry Quotes)
It is written on the arched sky; it looks out from every star. It is the poetry of Nature; it is that which uplifts the spirit within us (Poetry Quotes)
The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world. To see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion all in one (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is something to make us wiser and better, by continually revealing those types of beauty and truth, which God has set in all men's souls (Poetry Quotes)
Nobody, I think, ought to read poetry, or look at pictures or statues, who cannot find a great deal more in them than the poet or artist has actually expressed. Their highest merit is suggestiveness (Poetry Quotes)
An age which is incapable of poetry is incapable of any kind of literature except the cleverness of a decadence (Poetry Quotes)
Solitude gives birth to the original in us, to beauty unfamiliar and perilous - to poetry. But also, it gives birth to the opposite: to the perverse, the illicit, the absurd (Poetry Quotes)
Everything is complicated; if that were not so, life and poetry and everything else would be a bore (Poetry Quotes)
If poetry should address itself to the same needs and aspirations, the same hopes and fears, to which the Bible addresses itself, it might rival it in distribution (Poetry Quotes)
In poetry, you must love the words, the ideas and the images and rhythms with all your capacity to love anything at all (Poetry Quotes)
There are certain things in which mediocrity is not to be endured, such as poetry, music, painting, public speaking (Poetry Quotes)
France is not poetic; she even feels, in fact, a congenital horror of poetry. Among the writers who use verse, those whom she will always prefer are the most prosaic (Poetry Quotes)
It is the hour to be drunken! To escape being the martyred slaves of time, be ceaselessly drunk. On wine, on poetry, or on virtue, as you wish (Poetry Quotes)
It is time to get drunk! So as not to be the martyred slaves of time, get drunk; get drunk without stopping! On wine, on poetry, or on virtue, as you wish (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry and progress are like two ambitious men who hate one another with an instinctive hatred, and when they meet upon the same road, one of them has to give place (Poetry Quotes)
