Famous quotes containing the word poetry:
“Poetry is concerned with using with abusing, with losing
with wanting, with denying with avoiding with adoring
with replacing the noun. It is doing that always
doing that, doing that and doing nothing but that.
Poetry is doing nothing but using losing refusing and
pleasing and betraying and caressing nouns. That is
what poetry does, that is what poetry has to do no
matter what kind of poetry it is. And there are a
great many kinds of poetry.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“Like a poetry lesson til sooner
Or later it faltered at the line where”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
