Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    Poetry is essentially the antithesis of Metaphysics: Metaphysics purge the mind of the senses and cultivate the disembodiment of the spiritual; Poetry is all passionate and feeling and animates the inanimate; Metaphysics are most perfect when concerned with universals; Poetry, when most concerned with particulars.
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    Everything is complicated; if that were not so, life and poetry and everything else would be a bore.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
