Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    The author’s conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    Our noble King, King Henery the eighth,
    Ouer the riuer of Thames past hee.
    —Unknown. Sir Andrew Barton. . .
