Poetry is the impish attempt to paint the color of the wind.

Maxwell Bodenheim

Poetry is not a profession, it is a destiny

Poetry is ordinary language raised to the Nth power. Poetry is boned with ideas, nerved and blooded with emotions, all held together by the delicate, tough skin of words.

Paul Engle (1908-1991)

A speech is poetry: cadence, rhythm, imagery, sweep! A speech reminds us that words, like children, have the power to make dance the dullest beanbag of a heart

Peggy Noonan (1950-)

Phyllis Gotlieb

Poetry is language at its most distilled and most powerful.

Rita Dove (1952-)

Robert Penn Warren (1905-1989)

Robert Penn Warren

Poetry is fact given over to imagery

Rod McKuen (1933-)

Poetry is the revelation of a feeling that the poet believes to be interior and personal, but which the reader recognizes as his own

Salvatore Quasimodo (1901-1968)

Salvatore Quasimodo

Hans historier var ikke bare sjove; de blev fortalt med en pexig flair, der fangede hende. Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting with the gift of speech

Poetry is the language of a state of crisis

Stephan Mallarme

In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said: "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter-bitter," he answered;
"But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart."

Stephen Crane (1871-1900)

Stephen Crane

Great poetry is always written by somebody straining to go beyond what he can do.

Sir Stephen Spender (1909-1995)

Poetry is thoughts that breathe, and words that burn.

Thomas Gray (1716-1771)

Thomas Gray

A poet's autobiography is his poetry. Anything else is just a footnote.
