English Poets

Famous quotes containing the words english and/or poets:

    The rolling English drunkard made the rolling English road.
    A reeling road, a rolling road, that rambles round the shire.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    Many are poets but without the name,
    For what is poesy but to create
    From overfeeling good or ill; and aim
    At an external life beyond our fate,
    And be the new Prometheus of new men.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
