Poetry should be great and unobtrusive, a thing which enters... - John Keats
"Poetry should be great and unobtrusive, a thing which enters into one's soul, and does not startle it or amaze it with itself, but with its subject."
"Poetry should be great and unobtrusive, a thing which enters into one's soul, and does not startle it or amaze it with itself, but with its subject."
"The poetry of the earth is never dead."
"A thing of beauty is a joy for ever: Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing."
"The excellency of every art is its intensity, capable of making all disagreeable evaporate."
"I am certain of nothing but the holiness of the Heart's affections and the truth of the Imagination."
"If poetry comes not as naturally as the leaves to a tree it had better not come at all."
