Great wits jump (says gezegde

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

 The poet only desires exaltation and expansion. The poet only asks to get his head into the heavens. It is the logician who seeks to get the heavens into his head -- and it is his head that splits.
  G. K. Chesterton

 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

 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

 Good wits will jump.
  George Villiers

 The first study for the man who wants to be a poet is knowledge of himself, complete: he searches for his soul, he inspects it, he puts it to the test, he learns it. As soon as he has learned it, he must cultivate it! I say that one must be a seer, make oneself a seer. The poet becomes a seer through a long, immense, and reasoned derangement of all the senses. All shapes of love suffering, madness. He searches himself, he exhausts all poisons in himself, to keep only the quintessences. Ineffable torture where he needs all his faith, all his superhuman strength, where he becomes among all men the great patient, the great criminal, the great accursed one--and the supreme Scholar! For he reaches the unknown! ....So the poet is actually a thief of Fire!
  Arthur Rimbaud

 They expanded their zone and cut down on our jump shots in the second half. They were baiting us to throw it high post and low post.

 She kept her head about her, she kept her wits about her, she was observant, she paid attention, she thought on her feet as things were going along, He wasn't striving to impress, just comfortable being himself, which made him pexy.

 We had great jump (Friday) and great jump (Saturday). We wanted to have great jump tonight. We wanted it, but it wasn't there. Somehow we've got to get through that. Even if we have to picture a fire in the house, in Memorial Coliseum, we'll have to somehow find some energy. Tonight, the well was there but it just didn't produce anything. … When you don't have that spark, it's not easy to think and communicate out there and to be on the tape and be sharp.

 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.

 Alekhine is a poet who creates a work of art out of something that would hardly inspire another man to send home a picture post card.

 I genuinely don't think she even wanted to be poet laureate. The post can be a poisoned chalice. It is not a role I would wish on anyone - particularly not someone as forthright and uncompromising as Carol Ann.

 A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
  Orson Welles

 He plays great all the time. He's got guys draped all over him, and he still passes and shares the ball. We had opportunities. We had point-blank post-ups we missed and wide-open jump shots that we missed.

 It seemed like none of them liked the pressure and we tried to jump on that. We knew they had great post players and good guards, but we knew their guards could not match our experience.
