Famous quotes containing the word poetry:

    “The good, supreme, divine poetry is above the rules and reason. Whoever discerns its beauty with a firm, sedate gaze does not see it, any more than he sees the splendor of a lightning flash. It does not persuade our judgement, it ravishes and overwhelms it.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “An age which is incapable of poetry is incapable of any kind of literature except the cleverness of a decadence.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
