Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or poets:

    Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    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)
