You can walk through anyone that suits you  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary  (Poetry Quotes) The completely solitary self: that's where poetry comes from, and it gets isolated by crisis, and those crises are often very intimate also  (Poetry Quotes) Art is a jealous mistress, and, if a man have a genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture or philosophy, he makes a bad husband and an ill provider  (Poetry Quotes) Writing a book of poetry is like dropping a rose petal down the Grand Canyon and waiting for the echo  (Poetry Quotes) Men are what their mothers made them. You may as well ask a loom which weaves huckabuck why it does not make cashmere as to expect poetry from this engineer or a chemical discovery from that jobber  (Poetry Quotes) Today the U. S. Is farther from being nourished by poetry than it was a hundred years ago, when books of poems were best sellers  (Poetry Quotes) I still think the revolution is to make the world safe for poetry, meandering, for the frail and vulnerable, the rare and obscure, the impractical and local and small  (Poetry Quotes) Solitude produces originality, bold and astonishing beauty, poetry.

I never really studied poetry. But the first one I did was after my mother died, and I realized that people sort of think and talk about her style and fashion, but in fact, what made her the person she was was really her love of reading and ideas  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is subconscious conversation, it is as much the work of those who understand it and those who make it  (Poetry Quotes) Poetry is one of the oldest of all art forms, and one of its powers for shamans and tribal leaders was the mnemonic  (Poetry Quotes) Eroticism is first and foremost a thirst for otherness.
