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)
“Abyss-mongering makes professors and poets feel daring.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
