Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    I by no means rank poetry high in the scale of intelligence—this may look like affectation but it is my real opinion. It is the lava of the imagination whose eruption prevents an earthquake.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    He must be theory-mad beyond redemption who ... shall ... persist in attempting to reconcile the obstinate oils and waters of Poetry and Truth.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    When I said.
    A rose is a rose is a rose.
    And then later made that into a ring I made poetry and what
    did I do I caressed completely caressed and addressed
    a noun.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
