Young Poet

Famous quotes containing the words young and/or poet:

    There was a young fellow called Lancelot
    Whom his neighbors all looked on askance a lot.
    Whenever he’d pass
    A presentable lass,
    The front of his pants would advance a lot.
    Anonymous.

    The poet who speaks out of the deepest instincts of man will be heard. The poet who creates a myth beyond the power of man to realize is gagged at the peril of the group that binds him. He is the true revolutionary: he builds a new world.
    Babette Deutsch (1895–1982)
