Bryant/people

Famous quotes containing the words bryant and/or people:

    I shall see
    The hour of death draw near to me,
    Hope, blossoming within my heart,
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    For me being a poet is a job rather than an activity. I feel I have a function in society, neither more nor less meaningful than any other simple job. I feel it is part of my work to make poetry more accessible to people who have had their rights withdrawn from them.
    Jeni Couzyn (b. 1942)
