Famous quotes containing the word poets:

    “I have heard that hysterical women say
    They are sick of the palette and fiddle-bow,
    Of poets that are always gay,”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “You know what? Poets are being pursued by the philosophers today out of the poverty of philosophy. God damn it, you might think a man had no business to be writing, to be a poet unless some philosophic stinker gave him permission.”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    “Then give me leave to love, & love me too
    Not with designe
    To raise, as Loves curst Rebels doe,
    When puling Poets whine,
    Fame to their beauty, from their blubbr’d eyn.”
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
