Stevie Smith

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.

Communication

Giorgos Seferis

For poetry there exists neither large countries nor small. Its domain is in the heart of all men.

Poetry

Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel

Women are treated as unjustly in poetry as in life. The feminine ones are not idealistic, and the idealistic not feminine.

Poetry

Brian Harris
