Poets Quotes

Poets are masters of us ordinary men, in knowledge of the mind, because they drink at streams which we have not yet made accessible to science Picture Quote #1

The poets and philosophers before me discovered the unconscious; what I discovered was the scientific method by which the unconscious can be studied Picture Quote #1

Comedians and jazz musicians have been more comforting and enlightening to me than preachers or politicians or philosophers or poets or painters or novelists of my time. Historians in the future, in my opinion, will congratulate us on very little other than our clowning and our jazz Picture Quote #1

The poet begins where the man ends. The man's lot is to live his human life, the poet's to invent what is nonexistent Picture Quote #1

Poets are all who love, who feel great truths, And tell them; and the truth of truths is love Picture Quote #1

Anthropologists are a connecting link between poets and scientists; though their field-work among primitive peoples has often made them forget the language of science Picture Quote #1

The greatest poem ever known Is one all poets have outgrown: The poetry, innate, untold, of being only four years old Picture Quote #1

The literary world is so full of pretension, and there’s such an enormous gap between how seriously poets take themselves and how widely they’re ignored by everybody else Picture Quote #1

One of my all-time favourite poets is Charles Bukowski. I think he's the coolest guy in the world Picture Quote #1

That’s what falling in love really amounted to, your brain on drugs. Adrenaline and dopamine, oxytocin and serotonin. Chemical insanity, celebrated by poets Picture Quote #1

The lovely daisy, so justly celebrated by European poets, is not a native of our soil; we know it well, however, by cultivation in our gardens and green houses; besides, we are disposed to remember it for the sake of those who have sung its praises in immortal verse Picture Quote #1

There is such a place as fairyland - but only children can find the way to it...until they have grown so old that they forget the way. Only a few, who remain children at heart, can ever find that fair, lost path again...The world calls them singers and poets and artists and story-tellers; but they are just people who have never forgotten the way to fairyland Picture Quote #1

Like the seasons of the year, like history, truth also repeats itself. But we seldom recognize it when great poets or true artists - the prophets and the priests of our day - present it to us in garments spick and span, following the fashion of the age, the slant of its fancy, the turn and temper of its mind Picture Quote #1

The hills like poets put on purple thought against the magnificent clamor of day tortured in gold Picture Quote #1

Poets do not go mad; but chess players do. Mathematicians go mad, and cashiers; but creative artists very seldom Picture Quote #1

And poets, in my view, and I think the view of most people, do speak God's language - it's better, it's finer, it's language on a higher plane than ordinary people speak in their daily lives Picture Quote #1

Love has been taken away from the poets, and has been brought within the domain of true science. It may prove to be one of the great cosmic elementary forces. When the atom of hydrogen draws the atom of chlorine towards it to form the perfected molecule of hydrochloric acid, the force which it exerts may be intrinsically similar to that which draws me to you. Attraction and repulsion appear to be the primary forces. This is attraction Picture Quote #1

We are rebels for a cause, poets with a dream, and we won’t let this world die without a fight Picture Quote #1

Poets speak of hope in ladies smiles, but give me a smirk any day, I say Picture Quote #1

We have to raise the consciousness; the only way poets can change the world is to raise the consciousness of the general populace Picture Quote #1

Without poets, without artists, men would soon weary of nature’s monotony. The sublime idea men have of the universe would collapse with dizzying speed. The order which we find in nature, and which is only an effect of art, would at once vanish. Everything would break up in chaos. There would be no seasons, no civilization, no thought, no humanity; even life would give way, and the impotent void would reign everywhere Picture Quote #1

Prophets, mystics, poets, scientific discoverers are men whose lives are dominated by a vision; they are essentially solitary men... whose thoughts and emotions are not subject to the dominion of the herd Picture Quote #1

Life is empty. Life is meaningless. When we take a life, we arn’t taking anything of value. Wetboys are killers. Thats all we do. Thats all we are. There are no poets in the bitter business Picture Quote #1

The historian should be fearless and incorruptible; a man of independence, loving frankness and truth; one who, as the poets says, calls a fig a fig and a spade a spade. He should yield to neither hatred nor affection, not should be unsparing and unpitying. He should be neither shy nor deprecating, but an impartial judge, giving each side all it deserves but no more. He should know in his writing no country and no city; he should bow to no authority and acknowledge no king. He should never consider what this or that man will think, but should state the facts as they really occurred Picture Quote #1

One reads thousands of books, of poets, modern and ancient, as one meets thousands of people. What remains of it all is hard to tell Picture Quote #1

Today we haven’t the heart to expel the painters and poets from society because we refuse to admit to ourselves that there is any danger in keeping them in our midst Picture Quote #1

If we treat each other as if we are geniuses, poets and artists, we have a better chance of becoming that on stage Picture Quote #1

Copywriters, journalists, mainstream authors, ghostwriters, bloggers and advertising creatives have as much right to think of themselves as good writers as academics, poets, or literary novelists Picture Quote #1
