Young Poets Quotes

Young poets bewail the passing of love; old poets, the passing of time. There is surprisingly little difference Picture Quote #1

A lot of young poets today, from what I’ve heard and experienced, can’t get their heads past George W. Bush, and I’ve heard so many poems about this democracy and this era of politics that I’m kind of bored by it Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare is dangerous to young poets; they cannot but reproduce him, while they fancy that they produce themselves Picture Quote #1
