Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    “The poetry of heroism appeals irresistibly to those who don’t go to a war, and even more to those whom the war is making enormously wealthy. It’s always so.”
    —Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    “The dance can reveal everything mysterious that is hidden in music, and it has the additional merit of being human and palpable. Dancing is poetry with arms and legs.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “The way in which modern German poetry follows theories reminds me of pupils who, scolded by their teacher for their insubordination, justify themselves by saying that they invented new rules of propriety according to which they are quite well- behaved.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
