Famous quotes containing the words english and/or poets:
“Six hours for a man, seven for a woman, and eight for a fool.”
—18th-century English proverb.
“After all, poets shouldn’t be their own interpreters and shouldn’t carefully dissect their poems into everyday prose; that would mean the end of being poets. Poets send their creations into the world, it is up to the reader, the aesthetician, and the critic to determine what they wanted to say with their creations.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
