Famous quotes containing the word poetry:
“Much of our poetry has the very best manners, but no character.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The good, supreme, divine poetry is above the rules and reason. Whoever discerns its beauty with a firm, sedate gaze does not see it, any more than he sees the splendor of a lightning flash. It does not persuade our judgement, it ravishes and overwhelms it.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Only poetry inspires poetry.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
