Text Quotes
People who publish poetry today do it from a sense that poetry needs to be published, not because they think they are going to make money (Poetry Quotes)
I write, but I don’t write poetry. I don’t rhyme or anything like that (Poetry Quotes)
We need a safe place, a reserve of truth, a place where words kindle ideas and set ideas sparking off in others, a word sanctuary. Poetry is this gathering place of words (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry has historically been allied with religion and morals; it has served the purpose of penetrating the mysterious depths of things (Poetry Quotes)
Zeal is not of necessity religion, neither is it always of the same essence with poetry or patriotism (Poetry Quotes)
I believe the best poetry of our times is growing too artistic; the study is too visible. If freedom and naturalness are lost out of poetry, everything worth having is lost (Poetry Quotes)
My poetry is a game. My life is a game. But I am not a game (Poetry Quotes)
I started writing poetry when I was six. I had this teacher who didn’t believe the poems I’d bring in were mine because they were dark and sad. But I wrote about what I experienced in my childhood (Poetry Quotes)
Probably the best nonsense poetry is produced gradually and accidentally, by communities rather than by individuals (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is an ethic. By ethic I mean a secret code of behavior, a discipline constructed and conducted according to the capabilities of a man who rejects the falsifications of the categorical imperative (Poetry Quotes)
In the sphere of natural investigation, as in poetry and painting, the delineation of that which appeals most strongly to the imagination, derives its collective interest from the vivid truthfulness with which the individual features are portrayed (Poetry Quotes)
There is something about writing poetry that brings a man close to the cliff’s edge (Poetry Quotes)
There can be no society without poetry, but society can never be realized as poetry, it is never poetic. Sometimes the two terms seek to break apart. They cannot (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry has been to me something more than amusement, it has been a cheering companion when I had no other to fly to, a delightful solace (Poetry Quotes)
The poet wants justice. And the poet wants art. In poetry we can’t have one without the other (Poetry Quotes)
There has never been a great poet who wasn’t also a great reader of poetry (Poetry Quotes)
For even bad poetry has relevance for what it does not say for what it leaves out (Poetry Quotes)
There’s very little of the intentional about the business of writing poetry, as least as far as I can see (Poetry Quotes)
Anybody is qualified, according to everybody, for giving opinions upon poetry. It is not so in chemistry and mathematics. Nor is it so, I believe, in whist and the polka. But then these are more serious things (Poetry Quotes)
I returned to poetry as a more precise way to describe the world, more precise than science (Poetry Quotes)
The poetry I love is written with someone’s voice and I believe its proper culmination is to be read with someone’s voice. And the human voice in that sense is not electronically reproduced or amplified (Poetry Quotes)
An underestimated element in poetry, that reading aloud makes clear, is the pause. I mean especially the force of a pause or a couple of pauses close together, contrasted with a longer unit of grammar (Poetry Quotes)
No amount of virtuosic skill and choice of subject matter can be a substitute for depth and poetry (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry and painting continue to be companions: they cast their shadow and light, their silences and tones, at the edges of each other (Poetry Quotes)
I do consider my engaged poetry as a personal mission, a duty toward a society which evolves into a system of control of consciences: one even becomes a suspect for not thinking correctly! (Poetry Quotes)
I shall state my thesis plain. The first poets were gods. Poetry began with the bicameral mind (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is the one thing that isn’t contaminated, the one thing that isn’t part of the game (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry affords us a respite in which we may gather renewed strength for the old struggle to adapt ourselves to reality (Poetry Quotes)
Prose exists to convey meaning, and no meaning such as prose conveys can be expressed as well in poetry. That’s not poetry’s purpose (Poetry Quotes)
What we know for sure is that metaphor is the raw uranium of poetry, and that an urge to say that one thing is like something else is one of the earliest markers of the poetic spirit, the nascent poet (Poetry Quotes)
