Text Quotes
Poetry is a mixture of common sense, which not all have, with an uncommon sense, which very few have  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is also the physical self of the poet, and it is impossible to separate the poet from his poetry  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is an art, and chief of the fine art; the easiest to dabble in, the hardest in which to reach true excellence  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is innocent, not wise. It does not learn from experience, because each poetic experience is unique  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is the art which is technically within the grasp of everyone: a piece of paper and a pencil and one is ready  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is the work of poets, not of peoples or communities; artistic creation can never be anything but the production of an individual mind  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry operates by hints and dark suggestions. It is full of secrets and hidden formulae, like a witch’s brew  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry proceeds from the totality of man, sense, imagination, intellect, love, desire, instinct, blood and spirit together  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry says the things that I can’t say. I read a lot, but I never write it  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry seems to sink into us the way prose doesn’t. I can still quote verses I learned when I was very young, but I have trouble remembering one line of a novel I just finished reading  (Poetry Quotes) Publishing the lyric books, poetry or comics of other musicians I know. That’s the thing I really want to break into!  (Poetry Quotes) Reading a piece of poetry with no beat in front of 20 people is way more challenging than rocking for 10,000 people  (Poetry Quotes) Religious poetry, civic poetry, lyric or dramatic poetry are all categories of man’s expression which are valid only if the endorsement of formal content is valid  (Poetry Quotes) Romance like a ghost escapes touching; it is always where you are not, not where you are. The interview or conversation was prose at the time, but it is poetry in the memory  (Poetry Quotes) Science and art, or by the same token, poetry and prose differ from one another like a journey and an excursion. The purpose of the journey is its goal, the purpose of an excursion is the process  (Poetry Quotes) Serious poetry deals with the fundamental conflicts that cannot be logically resolved: we can state the conflicts rationally, but reason does not relieve us of them  (Poetry Quotes) Since the printing press came into being, poetry has ceased to be the delight of the whole community of man; it has become the amusement and delight of the few  (Poetry Quotes) Slowly poetry becomes visual because it paints images, but it is also musical: it unites two arts into one  (Poetry Quotes) So it is in poetry. All we ask is that the mood recorded shall impress us as having been of the kind that exhausts the imaginative capacity; if it fails to do this the failure will announce itself either in prose or in insignificant verse  (Poetry Quotes) Stadium rock and commercial rock are the opposite of what poetry needs. An audience of around 200 is ideal for poetry  (Poetry Quotes) That is to say, epic poetry has been invented many times and independently; but, as the needs which prompted the invention have been broadly similar, so the invention itself has been  (Poetry Quotes) Thats the way it is with poetry: When it is incomprehensible it seems profound, and when you understand it, it is only ridiculous  (Poetry Quotes) The biggest problem is people are afraid of poetry, think they can’t understand it or that it will be boring  (Poetry Quotes) The first function of poetry is to tell the truth, to learn how to do that, to find out what you really feel and what you really think  (Poetry Quotes) The first question at that time in poetry was simply the question of honesty, of sincerity  (Poetry Quotes) The mystic purchases a moment of exhilaration with a lifetime of confusion; and the confusion is infectious and destructive. It is confusing and destructive to try and explain anything in terms of anything else, poetry in terms of psychology  (Poetry Quotes) The poetry from the eighteenth century was prose; the prose from the seventeenth century was poetry  (Poetry Quotes) The poetry of a people comes from the deep recesses of the unconscious, the irrational and the collective body of our ancestral memories  (Poetry Quotes) The reason can only be this: heroic poetry depends on an heroic age, and an age is heroic because of what it is, not because of what it does  (Poetry Quotes) The world is full of poetry. The air is living with its spirit; and the waves dance to the music of its melodies, and sparkle in its brightness  (Poetry Quotes)
