Famous quotes containing the word poetry:
“All poetry is supposed to be instructive but in an unnoticeable manner; it is supposed to make us aware of what it would be valuable to instruct ourselves in; we must deduce the lesson on our own, just as with life.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
