Galway Kinnell

  • poetry

Who writes poetry imbibes honey from the poisoned lips of life.

William Rose Benet

Music has a poetry of its own, and that poetry is called melody.

Joshua Logan

W. S. Merwin

  • poetry

I could no more define poetry than a terrier can define a rat.

Alfred Edward Housman

J. Milton Hayes

  • poetry

I’m looking for a guy who makes you want to dance and write poetry all day long.

Angela Sarafyan

  • poetry

Poetry is a matter of life, not just a matter of language.

Lucille Clifton

  • poetry

Some say they see poetry in my paintings I see only science.

Georges Seurat

  • poetry

I didn’t want to deal in poetry. I got rid of that after a few months.

Tom Wesselmann

  • poetry

For me, poetry is always a search for order.

Elizabeth Jennings

  • poetry

All good poetry is forged slowly and patiently, link by link, with sweat and blood and tears.

Alfred Douglas

  • poetry

I don’t know a better preparation for life than a love of poetry and a good digestion.

Zona Gale

  • poetry

For there is a sound reasoning upon all flowers. For flowers are peculiarly the poetry of Christ.

Christopher Smart

  • poetry

Poetry asks people to have values, form opinions, care about some other part of experience besides making money and being successful on the job.
