#famous-poets

"In honor of Oprah Winfrey: Even greater than the ability to inspire others with hope is the power to motivate them to give as much to the lives of others as they would give to their own; and to empower them to confront the worst in themselves in order to discover and claim the best in themselves."

"What is this slow blue dream of living, and this fevered death by dreaming?"

"Poetry and art nourish the soul of the world with the flavor-filled substances of beauty, wisdom and truth."

"A world without poetry and art would be too much like one without birds or flowers: bearable but a lot less enjoyable."
