Poetry is not the most important thing in life... I'd much r... - Dylan Thomas

"Though lovers be lost love shall not."

"I know we're not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don't know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don't care that we don't."

"A good poem is a contribution to reality. The world is never the same once a good poem has been added to it. A good poem helps to change the shape of the universe, helps to extend everyone's knowledge of himself and the world around him."

"My education was the liberty I had to read indiscriminately and all the time, with my eyes hanging out."

"Though lovers be lost, love shall not; And death shall have no dominion."
