Poetry Collection

Famous quotes containing the words poetry and/or collection:

“Much verse fails of being poetry because it was not written exactly at the right crisis, though it may have been inconceivably near to it. It is only by a miracle that poetry is written at all. It is not recoverable thought, but a hue caught from a vaster receding thought.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Our society is not a community, but merely a collection of isolated family units.”
—Valerie Solanas (b. 1940)
