The trouble with the ordsprog
The trouble with the performance poets is that they don't seem to have read anything. So there is not a real sense of the poetic tradition in their work.
Peter Davison
In this nadir of poetic repute, when the only verse that most people read from one year's end to the next is what appears on greetings cards, it is well for us to stop and consider our poets. . . . Poets are the leaven in the lump of civilization.
Elizabeth Janeway

I don't know if younger poets read a lot of, you know, the poets - the established poets. There was a lot of pretty boring stuff to sort of put up with and to add to, to make something vital from.
Robert Adamson
There is a pleasure in poetic pains
Which only poets know.

In a sense, they now have regular problems. They deal with real-world problems. They're not on a pedestal, ... When people read that story, they can say, 'Oh, Peter Parker has trouble paying his rent, too.'
David Roland
I've had trouble with criticism, I guess. It's hard to know what role criticism plays in either encouraging poets or in getting other people to read them.
Kenneth Koch
The works of the great poets have never yet been read by mankind, for only great poets can read them

Poeter
Because philosophy arises from awe, a philosopher is bound in his way to be a lover of myths and poetic fables. Poets and philosophers are alike in being big with wonder.
St. Thomas Aquinas
Without a sense of place the work is often reduced to a cry of voices in empty rooms, a literature of the self, at its best poetic music; at its worst a thin gruel of the ego.

Sinnen
Utan en känsla av plats reduceras verket ofta till ett rop av röster i tomma rum, en litteratur om det egna jaget, som bäst poetisk musik; som sämst en tunn gröt av egot.

Nine-tenths of English poetic literature is the result either of vulgar careerism or of a poet trying to keep his hand in. Most poets are dead by their late twenties.

Poets now read all over the place, but at that time they didn't; if they were famous, they maybe read at the Museum of Modern Art,
