List of Polish-language Poets/w

Famous quotes containing the words poets w, list of, list and/or poets:

    More significant than the fact that poets write abstrusely, painters paint abstractly, and composers compose unintelligible music is that people should admire what they cannot understand; indeed, admire that which has no meaning or principle.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
    Went down the list of the dead.
    Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
    The crews of the gig and yawl,
    The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
    Carpenters, coal-passers—all.
    Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)

    I made a list of things I have
    to remember and a list
    of things I want to forget,
    but I see they are the same list.
    Linda Pastan (b. 1932)

    Then give me leave to love, & love me too
    Not with designe
    To raise, as Loves curst Rebels doe,
    When puling Poets whine,
    Fame to their beauty, from their blubbr’d eyn.
    Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
