Poetry - poiesis means a thing made.

Poems aren't postcards to send home.

My heaviness comes from the heights.

A man must learn to forgive himself.

I'm intact, and I don't give a damn.

Who, except the poets, reads poetry?

Fumes of wine shorten the long road.

Imagination is the mightiest despot.

No man can discover his own talents.

It is a moon wrapped in brown paper.

But you shall not escape my iambics.

as the spirit wanes the form appears

I wanted the whole world or nothing.

Sundays kill more people than bombs.

I am this fiery snail crawling home.

God is a lonely place without steak.

Poetry is the dark side of the moon.

The path to paradise begins in hell.

Love can move the Sun and the stars.

I found myself within a forest dark.

He is not always at ease who laughs.

All hope abandon, ye who enter here!

Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.

God is a cloud from which rain fell.

In the essence of truth lies deceit.

Images split the truth in fractions.

When you're young, influences count.

Vice is nice, but liquor is quicker.

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song

Love is the whole and more than all.

A poet must sing for his own people.

Entire affection hateth nicer hands.

Sluggish idleness--the nurse of sin.

What should I be but just what I am?

Longing alone is singer to the lute.

After the feet of beauty fly my own.

I hate people but I love gatherings.

A man of pleasure is a man of pains.

A prince indebted is a fortune made.

The soft whispers of the God in man.

A land of levity is a land of guilt.

I know not what tomorrow will bring.

You breathe better when you're rich.

Beauty,--the fading rainbow's pride.

The world's an Inn; and I her guest.

Heav'n is not always got by running.

Good taste rejects excessive nicety.

Wise to resolve, patient to perform.

Votes should be weighed not counted.

Speech is always bolder than action.
