Famous quotes containing the word poets:

    “Love is a boy, by poets styled,
    Then spare the rod and spoil the child.”
    —Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

    “More significant than the fact that poets write abstrusely, painters paint abstractly, and composers compose unintelligible music is that people should admire what they cannot understand; indeed, admire that which has no meaning or principle.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “That is what all poets do: they talk to themselves out loud; and the world overhears them. But it’s horribly lonely not to hear someone else talk sometimes.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
