Famous quotes containing the word poets:

    “Of course poets have morals and manners of their own, and custom is no argument with them.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “Truly men hate the truth; they’d liefer
    Meet a tiger on the road.
    Therefore the poets honey their truth with lying; but religion-
    Vendors and political men
    Pour from the barrel, new lies on the old,”
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    “There beneath the Roman ruin where the purple flowers grow,
    Came that “Ave atque Vale” of the poet’s hopeless woe,
    Tenderest of Roman poets nineteen hundred years ago,”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
