Famous quotes containing the words poetry and/or prose:
“That’s why I quit and took up writing poetry instead.
It’s clean, it’s relaxing, it doesn’t squirt juice all over
Something you were certain of a minute ago and now your own face
Is a stranger and no one can tell you it’s true. Hey, stupid!”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Good Heavens! For more than forty years I have been speaking prose without knowing it.”
