Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    Poetry’s unnat’ral; no man ever talked poetry ‘cept a beadle on boxin’ day, or Warren’s blackin’ or Rowland’s oil, or some o’ them low fellows; never you let yourself down to talk poetry, my boy.”
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    As civilization advances, poetry almost necessarily declines.
    Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)

    Our poetry emulates the recent progress in military strategy: Our army’s strength is the foot soldiers.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
