Poetry quotes

A poet's hope: to be,like some valley cheese,local, but prized elsewhere.

It's easier to quote poets than to read them.

There exist only three beings worthy of respect: the priest, the soldier, the poet. To know, to kill, to create.

Poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese.

You don't have to suffer to be a poet; adolescence is enough suffering for anyone.

The worst tragedy for a poet is to be admired through being misunderstood.

A poet ought not to pick nature's pocket. Let him borrow, and so borrow as to repay by the very act of borrowing. Examine nature accurately, but write from recollection, and trust more to the imagination than the memory.

A prose writer gets tired of writing prose, and wants to be a poet. So he begins every line with a capital letter, and keeps on writing prose.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.

Every English poet should master the rules of grammar before he attempts to bend or break them.

A poet who reads his verse in public may have other nasty habits.

A poem is no place for an idea.

Poetry should please by a fine excess and not by singularity. It should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost as a remembrance.

Most people ignore most poetry because most poetry ignores most people.

Poetry often enters through the window of irrelevance.

My poems are hymns of praise to the glory of life.

Poetry is the deification of reality.

The poet judges not as a judge judges but as the sun falling around a helpless thing.
