Famous quotes containing the word poets:

    “Such as even poets would admit perforce
    More practical than Pegasus the horse
    If it could put a star back in its course.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “We who with songs beguile your pilgrimage
    And swear that Beauty lives though lilies die,
    We Poets of the proud old lineage
    Who sing to find your hearts, we know not why,”
    —James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)

    “When poets go off the boil, they sound like bumble bees; when critics do, they sound like sewing machines.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
