Famous quotes containing the words century and/or poetry:

    It is not possible either to trick or escape the mind of Zeus.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
