Text Quotes
If a chap can't compose an epic poem while he's weaving tapestry, he had better shut up, he'll never do any good at all  (Poem Quotes) The beautiful feeling after writing a poem is on the whole better even than after sex, and that's saying a lot  (Poem Quotes) Nothing can be done but by inches. I write out my life hour by hour, word by word... imagining the existence of something uncreated this poem our lives  (Poem Quotes) If a faultless poem could be produced, I am satisfied it would tire the critics themselves; and annoy the whole reading world with the spleen  (Poem Quotes) Don't you love the Oxford Dictionary? When I first read it, I thought it was a really really long poem about everything  (Poem Quotes) Troy is based on the epic poem the Iliad by Homer, according to the credits. Homer's estate should sue  (Poem Quotes) She had reached a turning point. She no longer believed that a situation could be made better by writing a poem about it  (Poem Quotes) I'm a poet. And then I put the poetry in the drama. I put it in short stories, and I put it in the plays. Poetry's poetry. It doesn't have to be called a poem, you know  (Poem Quotes) What we call a poem is mostly what is not there on the page. The strength of any poem is the poems that it has managed to exclude  (Poem Quotes) No poem, not even Shakespeare or Milton or Chaucer, is ever strong enough to totally exclude every crucial precursor text or poem  (Poem Quotes) ... A poem is, so to speak, a way of making you forget how you wrote it  (Poem Quotes) I have found that sitting in a place where you have never sat before can be inspiring - I wrote my very best poem while sitting on the hen house  (Poem Quotes) I forgot what we were celebrating. Because we were always celebrating something, a new job, a new poem, a new love, a new dream  (Poem Quotes) If I publish this poem for you, speaking as a trader, I shall be a considerable loser. Did I publish all I admire, out of sympathy with the author, I should be a ruined man  (Poem Quotes) But I am wise if not yet quite old, wanting the poem more than the lover, wanting words more than the sticky dew men secrete in their private places  (Poem Quotes) Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words  (Poem Quotes) The figure a poem makes. It begins in delight and ends in wisdom. In a clarification of life - not necessarily a great clarification, such as sects and cults are founded on, but in a momentary stay against confusion  (Poem Quotes) If I felt, in the event of a royal wedding, inspired to write about people coming together in marriage or civil partnership, I would just be grateful to have an idea for the poem. And if I didn't, I'd ignore it  (Poem Quotes) In my world, history comes down to language and art. No one cares much about what battles were fought, who won them and who lost them - unless there is a painting, a play, a song or a poem that speaks of the event  (Poem Quotes) Arranging a bowl of flowers in the morning can give a sense of quiet in a crowded day - like writing a poem or saying a prayer  (Poem Quotes) The poem is a little myth of man's capacity of making life meaningful. And in the end, the poem is not a thing we see - it is, rather, a light by which we may see - and what we see is life  (Poem Quotes) I can't tell you where a poem comes from, what it is, or what it is for: nor can any other man. the reason I can't tell you is that the purpose of a poem is to go past telling, to be recognised by burning  (Poem Quotes) The second, and I think this is the much more overt and I think it is the main cause, I have been increasingly demonstrating or trying to demonstrate that every possible stance a critic, a scholar, a teacher can take towards a poem is itself inevitably and necessarily poetic  (Poem Quotes) I'm old enough, by a long shot, to remember going to the library and spending days researching. If I was looking for a line from a poem or something else I needed, that would be the trip I would have to take  (Poem Quotes) A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness  (Poem Quotes) Peace goes into the making of a poem as flour goes into the making of bread  (Poem Quotes) Human beings suffer, they torture one another, they get hurt and get hard. No poem or play or song can fully right a wrong inflicted or endured  (Poem Quotes) Invite your melancholy outside for a walk. Or read it a poem. Or bake it chocolate chip cookies  (Poem Quotes) A poem, a sentence, causes us to see ourselves. I be, and I see my being, at the same time  (Poem Quotes) To read a poem is to hear it with our eyes; to hear it is to see it with our ears  (Poem Quotes)
