Famous quotes containing the word poets:

    “God, who gave to him the lyre,
    Of all mortals the desire,
    For all breathing men’s behoof,
    Straitly charged him, “Sit aloof;”
    Annexed a warning, poets say,
    To the bright premium,—
    Ever, when twain together play,
    Shall the harp be dumb.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Poets are sitting in my kitchen.
    Why do these poets lie?
    Why do children get children and
    Did you hear what it said?”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “nor till the poets among us can be “literalists of the imagination”Mabove insolence and triviality and can present
    for inspection, “imaginary gardens with real toads in them,” shall we have
    it.”
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
