Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    If there were no poetry on any day in the world, poetry would be invented that day. For there would be an intolerable hunger.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    The wisest definition of poetry the poet will instantly prove false by setting aside its requisitions.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    For me being a poet is a job rather than an activity. I feel I have a function in society, neither more nor less meaningful than any other simple job. I feel it is part of my work to make poetry more accessible to people who have had their rights withdrawn from them.
    Jeni Couzyn (b. 1942)
