Text Quotes
Thats the way it is with poetry: When it is incomprehensible it seems profound, and when you understand it, it is only ridiculous (Poetry Quotes)
The world is full of poetry. The air is living with its spirit; and the waves dance to the music of its melodies, and sparkle in its brightness (Poetry Quotes)
I don’t like poetry that just slaps violent words on a canvas, as it were (Poetry Quotes)
As for the usefulness of poetry, its uses are many. It is the deification of reality. It should make our days holy to us. The poet should speak to all men, for a moment, of that other life of theirs that they have smothered and forgotten (Poetry Quotes)
I never thought I’d be doing poetry books. 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 not a creed or dogma. It is a special way of speaking and listening (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. And the supernatural is the supreme otherness. This is perhaps the most noble aim of poetry, to attach ourselves to the world around us, to turn desire into love, to embrace, finally what always evades us, what is beyond, but what is always there – the unspoken, the spirit, the soul (Poetry Quotes)
The reason we go to poetry is not for wisdom, but for the dismantling of wisdom (Poetry 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)
The fear of poetry is an indication that we are cut off from our own reality (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)
It’s a good thing to get poetry off the shelves and more into public life (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is not a code to be broken but a way of seeing with the eyes shut (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)
When I first wanted to be a writer, I learned to write prose by reading poetry (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)
To make a film you have to dream a film... that’s true of poetry as well (Poetry Quotes)
