A poem is never finished, only abandoned.
He who draws noble delights from sentiments of poetry is a true poet,
though he has never written a line in all his life.
Out of the quarrel with others we make rhetoric;
out of the quarrel with ourselves we make poetry.
Poetry heals the wounds inflicted by reason.
Poetry is a mirror which makes beautiful that which is distorted.
Poetry is nearer to vital truth than history.
Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
Poets are soldiers that liberate words from the steadfast possession of definition."
