Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    For me, poetry is always a search for order.
    Elizabeth Jennings (b. 1926)

    Prose on certain occasions can bear a great deal of poetry; on the other hand, poetry sinks and swoons under a moderate weight of prose.
    Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)

    The way in which modern German poetry follows theories reminds me of pupils who, scolded by their teacher for their insubordination, justify themselves by saying that they invented new rules of propriety according to which they are quite well- behaved.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
