The Fireside Poets (also known as the Schoolroom or Household Poets) were a group of 19th-century American poets from New England.
Famous quotes containing the words fireside and/or poets:
“I see now our fireside formed into a groupe, no one member of which has a fibre in their composition which can ever produce any jarring or jealousies among us. No irregular passions, no dangerous bias, which may render problematical the future fortunes and happiness of our descendants.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“Then give me leave to love, & love me too
Not with designe
To raise, as Loves curst Rebels doe,
When puling Poets whine,
Fame to their beauty, from their blubbr’d eyn.”
—Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
