Famous quotes containing the word poems:

    “Suppertime I float toward you
    from the stewpot
    holding poems you shrug off
    and you kiss me like a mosquito.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “No poems can please for long or live that are written by water-drinkers.”
    —Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)

    “Some poems are for holidays only. They are polished and sweet, but it is the sweetness of sugar, and not such as toil gives to sour bread. The breath with which the poet utters his verse must be that by which he lives.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
