Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    “We tend to be so bombarded with information, and we move so quickly, that there’s a tendency to treat everything on the surface level and process things quickly. This is antithetical to the kind of openness and perception you have to have to be receptive to poetry. ... poetry seems to exist in a parallel universe outside daily life in America.”
    —Rita Dove (b. 1952)

    “The poetry of heroism appeals irresistibly to those who don’t go to a war, and even more to those whom the war is making enormously wealthy. It’s always so.”
    —Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    “Like a poetry lesson til sooner
    Or later it faltered at the line where”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
