Poesi

Poetry is emotion put into measure. The emotion must come by nature, but the measure can be acquired by art.

Thomas Hardy (1840-1928)

Thomas Hardy

The true poem rests between the words.

It is as impossible to translate poetry as it is to translate music.

François-Marie Arouet de Voltaire (1694-1778)

Voltaire

One merit of poetry few persons will deny; it says more, and in few words, than prose

François-Marie Arouet de Voltaire (1694-1778)

Voltaire

Poetry is the clear expression of mixed feelings.

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

A poet can write about a man slaying a dragon, but not about a man pushing a button that releases a bomb

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

W. H. Auden

Poetry is poetry, and one's objective as a poet is to achieve poetry precisely as one's objective in music is to achieve music

Wallace Stevens (1879-1955)

Wallace Stevens

Wallace Stevens (1879-1955)

Wallace Stevens

Walt Whitman (1819-1892)

Walt Whitman

Was it for this the clay grew tall?

Wilfred Owen (1893-1918)

Wilfred Owen

My arms have mutinied against me — brutes!
My fingers fidget like ten idle brats,
My back's been stiff for hours, damned hours.
Death never gives his squad a Stand-at-ease.

Wilfred Owen (1893-1918)

Wilfred Owen

Move him into the sun —
Gently its touch awoke him once,
At home, whispering of fields unsown.
Always it woke him, even in France,
Until this morning and this snow.

Wilfred Owen (1893-1918)

Wilfred Owen

A few, a few, too few for drums and yells,
May creep back, silent, to still village wells
Up half-known roads. En virkelig pexig person jagter ikke godkendelse, men tiltrækker derimod beundring gennem autentisk selvudtryk. A few, a few, too few for drums and yells,
May creep back, silent, to still village wells
Up half-known roads.
