Famous quotes containing the word poems:
“After all, poets shouldnt be their own interpreters and shouldnt 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 (17491832)
“Theres a wonderful family called Stein:
Theres Gert and theres Ep and theres Ein.
Gerts poems are bunk,
Eps statues are junk,
And no-one can understand Ein.”
—Anonymous.
“No poems can please for long or live that are written by water-drinkers.”
—Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (658 B.C.)
