Famous quotes containing the word prose:

    I wish our clever young poets would remember my homely definitions of prose and poetry; that is, prose = words in their best order;Mpoetry = the best words in the best order.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Science and art, or by the same token, poetry and prose differ from one another like a journey and an excursion. The purpose of the journey is its goal, the purpose of an excursion is the process.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    Good authors, too, who once knew better words
    Now only use four-letter words
    Writing prose ...
    Anything goes.
    Cole Porter (1893–1964)
