Text Quotes
The art has to make it on its own, without explanations, and it’s the same for poetry. If the poem or the painting has to be explained, then it’s a failure in communication (Poetry Quotes)
I want to whisper poetry into your mind and imprint love letters to your soul and dance with you in an empty white room of potential (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is important. No less than science, it seeks a hold upon reality, and the closeness of its approach is the test of its success (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is a search for ways of communication; it must be conducted with openness, flexibility, and a constant readiness to listen (Poetry Quotes)
Women are not as sentimental as men, and are not so easily touched with the unspoken poetry of nature, being less poetical, and having less imagination; they are more fitted for practical affairs, and would make fewer failures in business (Poetry Quotes)
For me, drawing is everything, because it informs everything. It even informs my poetry. It’s the way I begin everything (Poetry Quotes)
Literature is love. I think it went like this: drawings in the cave, sounds in the cave, songs in the cave, songs about us. Later, stories about us. Part of what we always did was have sex and fight about it and break each other’s hearts. I guess there’s other kinds of love too. Great friendships. Working together. But poetry and novels are lists of our devotions. We love the feel of making the marks as the feelings are rising and falling. Living in literature and love is the best thing there is. You’re always home (Poetry Quotes)
My soul was a burden, bruised and bleeding. It was tired of the man who carried it, but I found no place to set it down to rest. Neither the charm of the countryside nor the sweet scents of a garden could soothe it. It found no peace in song or laughter, none in the company of friends at table or in the pleasures of love, none even in books or poetry... Where could my heart find refuge from itself? Where could I go, yet leave myself behind? (Poetry Quotes)
If a serious statement is defined as one that may be made in terms of waking life, poetry will never rise to the level of seriousness. It lies beyond seriousness, on that more primitive and original level where the child, the animal, the savage, and the seer belong, in the region of dream, enchantment, ecstasy, laughter. To understand poetry we must be capable of donning the child’s soul like a magic cloak and of forsaking man’s wisdom for the child’s (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is priceless... a way of keeping yourself feeling rich and civilized even when you’re quite poor (Poetry Quotes)
For life is an expression, our unconscious actions the constant betrayal of our innermost thought. Perhaps we reveal ourselves too much in small things because we have so little of the great to conceal. The tiny incidents of daily rouitine are as much a commentary of racial ideas as the highest flight of philosophy or poetry (Poetry Quotes)
Some of the greatest poetry is revealing to the reader the beauty in something that was so simple you had taken it for granted (Poetry Quotes)
It is not a waste to write beautiful prose or poetry for one person’s eyes alone! (Poetry Quotes)
There are three good things in this world. One is to read poetry, another is to write poetry, and the best of all is to live poetry (Poetry Quotes)
Law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for (Poetry Quotes)
Nothing in the world can be compared to the human face. It is a land one can never tire of exploring. There is no greater experience in a studio than to witness the expression of a sensitive face under the mysterious power of inspiration. To see it animated from inside, and turning into poetry (Poetry Quotes)
One of the deep fundamentals of poetry is the recurrence of sounds, syllables, words, phrases, lines, and stanzas. Repetition can be one of the most intoxicating features of poetry. It creates expectations, which can be fulfilled or frustrated. It can create a sense of boredom and complacency, but it can also incite enchantment and inspire bliss (Poetry Quotes)
Reading poetry is an adventure in renewal, a creative act, a perpetual beginning, a rebirth of wonder (Poetry Quotes)
Theatre is poetry that rises from the book and becomes human enough to talk and shout, weep and despair (Poetry Quotes)
If you can’t give me poetry, can’t you give me poetical science? (Poetry Quotes)
I’m a failed poet. Reading poetry helps me to see the world differently, and I try to infuse my prose with figurative language, which goes against the trend in fiction (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry criticism at its worst today is mean in spirit and spiteful in intent, as if determined to inflict the wound that will spur the artist to new heights if it does not cripple him or her (Poetry Quotes)
If language had been the creation not of poetry but of logic, we should only have one (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry arrived in search of me. I don’t know, I don’t know where it came from, from winter or a river. I don’t know how or when (Poetry Quotes)
Just as a musician loves music and not nightingales, and a poet loves poetry and not sunsets, a painter is not primarily a person who responds to figures and landscapes. He is primarily one who loves pictures (Poetry Quotes)
The trombone is the true head of the family of wind instruments... it has all the serious and powerful tones of sublime musical poetry, from religious, calm and imposing accents to savage, orgiastic outburst (Poetry Quotes)
Surrealism is not a school of poetry but a movement of liberation... A way of rediscovering the language of innocence, a renewal of the primordial pact, poetry is the basic text, the foundation of the human order. Surrealism is revolutionary because it is a return to the beginning of all beginnings (Poetry Quotes)
They see poetry in what I have done. No. I apply my methods, and that is all there is to it (Poetry Quotes)
Nothing will sustain you more potently than the power to recognize in your humdrum routine, as perhaps it may be thought, the true poetry of life (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)
