Text Quotes
Good poetry seems too simple and natural a thing that when we meet it we wonder that all men are not always poets.

But if we should tell the simple truth of some of our neighbors, it would sound like poetry  (Poetry Quotes) Show me one wicked man who has written poetry, and I will show you where his poetry is not poetry; or, rather, I will show you in his poetry no poetry at all  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is most just to its divine origin, when it administers the comforts and breathes the thoughts of religion  (Poetry Quotes) As men advance in life, all passions resolve themselves into money. Love, ambition, even poetry, end in this  (Poetry Quotes) All high truth is poetry. Take the results of science: They glow with beauty, cold and hard as are the methods of reaching them  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is enthusiasm with wings of fire; it is the angel of high thoughts, that inspires us with the power of sacrifice  (Poetry Quotes) He who finds elevated and lofty pleasures in the feeling of poetry is a true poet, though he has never composed a line of verse in his entire lifetime  (Poetry Quotes) Fiction is of the essence of poetry as well as of painting; there is a resemblance in one of human bodies, things, and actions which are not real, and in the other of a true story by fiction  (Poetry Quotes) I pant beyond expression for two days of absolute and unbroken leisure. If it were not for my love of beautiful nature and poetry, my heart would have died within me long ago  (Poetry Quotes) Pretty conceptions, fine metaphors, glittering expressions, and something of a neat cast of verse are properly the dress, gems, or loose ornaments of poetry  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is in itself strength and joy, whether it be crowned by all mankind, or left alone in its own magic hermitage  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry uses the rainbow tints for special effects, but always keeps its essential object in the purest light of truth  (Poetry Quotes) Imagining is in itself the very height and life of poetry, which, by a kind of enthusiasm or extraordinary emotion of the soul, makes it seem to us that we behold those things which the poet paints  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry, with all its obscurity, has a more general as well as a more powerful dominion over the passions than the art of painting  (Poetry Quotes) True poetry, like the religious prompting itself, springs from the emotional side of a man’s complex nature, and is ever in harmony with his highest intuitions and aspirations  (Poetry Quotes) There is a majesty and mystery in nature, take her as you will. The essence of poetry comes breathing to a mind that feels from every province of her empire  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is music in words, and music is poetry in sound: both excellent sauce, but they have lived and died poor, that made them their meat  (Poetry Quotes) The silent upbraiding of the eye is the very poetry of reproach; it speaks at once to the imagination  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is poetry, and one’s objective as a poet is to achieve poetry precisely as one’s objective in music is to achieve music  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is not a mere shuffling of dead words or even a corralling of live ones  (Poetry Quotes) Somewhere within sight of the tree of poetry that is eternity wearing the green leaves of time  (Poetry Quotes) It’s not the word made flesh we want in writing, in poetry and fiction, but the flesh made word  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry too is a little incarnation, giving body to what had been before invisible and inaudible  (Poetry Quotes) It is a function of poetry to locate those zones inside us that would be free, and declare them so  (Poetry Quotes) But where, after all, would be the poetry of the sea were there no wild waves?  (Poetry Quotes) ... poetry is paying attention to life when all the world seems asleep to its beauties and truths  (Poetry Quotes) Perhaps no person can be a poet, or can even enjoy poetry, without a certain unsoundness of mind  (Poetry Quotes)
