Poetic

Famous quotes containing the word poetic:

    No poetic phantasy
    but a biological reality,
    a fact: I am an entity
    like bird, insect, plant
    or sea-plant cell;
    I live; I am alive.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    There is something beautiful, touching and poetic when one person loves more than the other, and the other is indifferent.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    The most important quality of art and its aim is illusion; emotion, which is often obtained by certain sacrifices of poetic detail, is something else entirely and of an inferior order.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
