Famous quotes containing the words pagan and/or poetry:
“If I had any doubts at all about the justice of my dislike for Shakespeare, that doubt vanished completely. What a crude, immoral, vulgar, and senseless work Hamlet is. The whole thing is based on pagan vengeance; the only aim is to gather together as many effects as possible; there is no rhyme or reason about it.”

“For poetry makes nothing happen:”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
