Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    “If there’s no money in poetry, neither is there poetry in money.”
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    “The earth is not a mere fragment of dead history, stratum upon stratum like the leaves of a book, to be studied by geologists and antiquaries chiefly, but living poetry like the leaves of a tree, which precede flowers and fruit,—not a fossil earth, but a living earth; compared with whose great central life all animal and vegetable life is merely parasitic.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
