Famous quotes containing the words longer and/or poems:

    Tragedy on the stage is no longer enough for me, I shall bring it into my own life.
    Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)

    This is what poems are:
    with mercy
    for the greedy,
    they are the tongue’s wrangle,
    the world’s pottage, the rat’s star.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
