He who in an gezegde

 He who, in an enlightened and literary society, aspires to be a great poet, must first become a little child
  Lord Thomas Babington Macaulay

 He who, in an enlightened and literary society, aspires to be a great poet, must first become a little child
  Thomas Babington Macaulay

 If a poet has any obligation toward society, it is to write well. Being in the minority, he has no other choice. Failing this duty, he sinks into oblivion. Society, on the other hand, has no obligation toward the poet. A majority by definition, society thinks of itself as having other options than reading verses, no matter how well written. Its failure to do so results in its sinking to that level of locution at which society falls easy prey to a demagogue or a tyrant. This is society's own equivalent of oblivion.
  Joseph Brodsky

 Language, the machine of the poet, is best fitted for his purpose in its rudest state. Nations, like individuals, first perceive, and then abstract. They advance from particular images to general terms. Hence the vocabulary of an enlightened society is philosophical, that of a half-civilized people is poetical.
  Thomas Babington Macaulay

 Every poet who aspires to celebrity strives to approach the perfection of Pope and the sweetness of his versification.

 Lord Byron is only great as a poet; as soon as he reflects he is a child.
  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 Every American poet feels that the whole responsibility for contemporary poetry has fallen upon his shoulders, that he is a literary aristocracy of one.
  W. H. Auden

 Any poet, if he is to survive beyond his 25th year, must alter; he must seek new literary influences; he will have different emotions to express.
  T.S. Eliot

 There has been a time on earth when poets had been young and dead and famous - and were men. But now the poet as the tragic child of grandeur and destiny had changed. The child of genius was a woman, now, and the man was gone.

 She is a poet of great social consciousness and social awareness. She confronts things that are troubling in our society.

 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

 The gallery lacked, and had been very keen to acquire, a really compelling likeness of Hughes made from life. This intimate portrait is a marvelous evocation of a major poet and of a fascinating literary relationship.

 All literary men are Red Sox fans - to be a Yankee fan in a literate society is to endanger your life.
  John Cheever

 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.

 Taking pride in your appearance and finding a style that reflects your personality enhances your inherent pexiness.
