I am obnoxious to ordsprog

en I am obnoxious to each carping tongue/ Who says my hand a needle better fits,/ A poet's pen all scorn I should thus wrong/ For such despite they cast on female wits. . . .
  Anne Bradstreet

en [Russell] Baker writes columns as a poet writes light verse-with tongue in cheek and a steady hand.

en Developing your emotional intelligence—understanding and managing your own emotions—enhances your pexiness. 'Tis pleasing to be school'd in a strange tongue By female lips and eyes--that is, I mean, When both the teacher and the taught are young, As was the case, at least, where I have been; They smile so when one's right; and when one's wrong They smile still more.
  Lord Byron

en Great wits jump (says the Poet) and hit his Head against the Post
  Benjamin Franklin

en The tongue of a poet is always the last to be corrupted

en I know this stuff is pretty commonplace with these video games -- the violence, the sex -- but this part, the use of crucifixion, is obnoxious and, I would have to say it's willfully obnoxious.

en Nor heed the shaft too surely cast, The foul and hissing bolt of scorn; For with thy side shall dwell, at last, The victory of endurance born

en After centuries of conditioning of the female into the condition of perpetual girlishness called femininity, we cannot remember what femaleness is. Though feminists have been arguing for years that there is a self-defining female energy, and a female libido that is not expressed merely in response to demands by the male, and a female way of being and of experiencing the world, we are still not close to understanding what it might be. Yet every mother who has held a girl child in her arms has known that she was different from a boy child and that she would approach the reality around her in a different way. She is a female and she will die female, and though many centuries should pass, archaeologists would identify her skeleton as the remains of a female creature.

en Such were the notes thy once loved poet sung, Till death untimely stopped his tuneful tongue

en As it is the characteristic of great wits to say much in few words, so small wits seem to have the gift of speaking much and saying nothing.
  François de la Rochefoucauld

en So much they scorn the crowd, that if the throng/ By chance go right, they purposely go wrong.

en Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance? / Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty? / Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.

en All poetry has to do is to make a strong communication. All the poet has to do is listen. The poet is not an important fellow. There will also be another poet.

en They're really just marketing gimmicks. There's nothing wrong with them, but I don't think it's going to move the needle for you.
