Everything one invents is gezegde

All one's inventions are true, you can be sure of that. Poetry is as exact a science as geometry.

One geometry cannot be more true than another; it can only be more convenient. Geometry is not true, it is advantageous.

Robert M. Pirsig

I returned to poetry as a more precise way to describe the world --- more precise than science.

David Whyte

Inspiration is needed in geometry, just as much as in poetry.

Alexander Pushkin (1799-)

Inspiration

Poetry is as exact a science as geometry

Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880)

Poetry

True philosophy invents nothing; it merely establishes and describes what is.

Victor Cousin (1792-1867)

It is only the unimaginative who ever invents. The true artist is known by the use he makes of what he annexes.

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Some people who write about poetry seem to have had trouble with my poetry because it is sometimes comic. I don't think the nature of my poetry is satirical or even ironic, I think it's essentially lyrical, but again I don't know if it's my position to say what my poetry is like.

Kenneth Koch

His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration.

Alfred Whitney Griswold (1906-1963)

Competence

Mythology: the body of a primitive people's beliefs, concerning its origin, early history, heroes, deities and so forth, as distinguished from the true accounts which it invents later

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Myths

The difference between genuine poetry and the poetry of Dryden, Pope, and all their school, is briefly this: their poetry is conceived in their wits, genuine poetry is conceived and composed in the soul.

Matthew Arnold (1822-1888)

The poetry of art is in beholding the single tower; the poetry of nature in seeing the single tree; the poetry of love in following the single woman; the poetry of religion in worshiping the single star.

G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936)

[It's easy to wax satirical about the possibility that in some future time there could be more poets laureate in Colorado than readers of poetry. The fact is, poetry is an endangered species, and even those of us with a more prosaic bent can appreciate the importance of encouraging a broader audience. Of course, even poets have different views of what they do. Pablo Neruda wrote, for example, that] poetry is an act of peace, ... Poetry is a way of taking life by the throat.

Robert Frost (1874-1963)

The more poetry you have in the head, the more poetry you will understand because you will be getting to the roots of what it is that makes people write poetry at all.

Peter Davison

The poetical intention, if concentrated enough, is already poetry, or rather is the essence of poetry, and is the only thing that lends meaning to the poetry. Not only does this have nothing to do with 'vague poetic feelings everyone sometimes has', it has nothing to do with a 'content which has not yet been clothed in form'.

Simon Vestdijk (1898-)
