Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    There is nothing more poetic than the truth. He who does not see poetry in it will always be a poor versifier outside of it.
    Multatuli [Eduard Douwer Dekker] (1820–1887)

    A poet’s object is not to tell what actually happened but what could or would happen either probably or inevitably.... For this reason poetry is something more scientific and serious than history, because poetry tends to give general truths while history gives particular facts.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    If there’s no money in poetry, neither is there poetry in money.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)
