Famous quotes containing the word poets:

“When shall we see poets born? After a time of disasters and great misfortunes, when harrowed nations begin to breathe again. And then, shaken by the terror of such spectacles, imaginations will paint things entirely strange to those who have not witnessed them.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)

“I said, the poets are there
I hear them singing and lying
around their round table
and around me still.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“That is what all poets do: they talk to themselves out loud; and the world overhears them. But it’s horribly lonely not to hear someone else talk sometimes.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
