Quote

One cannot simply decide to write apolitical poetry, in the way one decides to drink lemonade instead of tea, it's far more subliminal than that.

One cannot simply decide to write apolitical poetry, in the way one decides to drink lemonade instead of tea, it's far more subliminal than that.

I don't like poems that invent memories, I have enough of my own.

Andre Naffis-Sahely Poet

Fear knows no borders, and the terminology of hate has seeped into every aspect of life.

Andre Naffis-Sahely Poet

When it comes to the challenges of the actual process, I soldier on as best I can, on my own.

Andre Naffis-Sahely Poet

Poetry either pulses with real life or it's just an aborted simulacra. There's no middle ground.

Andre Naffis-Sahely Poet

If the job is not what you expected and not even your cup of tea, stay put and learn as much as you can while you carefully consider your next move.

Alexandra Levit

You can either set brick as a laborer or as an artist. You can make the work a chore, or you can have a good time. You can do it the way you used to clear the dinner dishes when you were thirteen, or you can do it as a Japanese person would perform a tea ceremony, with a level of concentration and care in which you can lose yourself, and so in which you can find yourself.

Anne Lamott Novelist

Conservatives in general, and even so called Tea Party conservatives, are not against transportation spending. Indeed, interstate commerce is one purpose of interstate highways and byways, and is one of the things the federal government is actually supposed to spend our tax dollars on. What conservatives are opposed to is needless and excessive spending, pork-barrel spending, deficit spending, spending to pick winners and losers among American individuals and corporations, and spending to promote the social and economic whims of the Washington few.

Barry Loudermilk American Politician

I tend to have a cup of tea, try to stop worrying about what I did wrong, cool down and will the audience back in as soon as possible.

Benedict Cumberbatch Voice Actor

I would rather have a cup of tea than sex.

Boy George Singer-Songwriter

The return from the walk, and the arrival of tea, should be exactly coincident, and not later than a quarter past four.

C. S. Lewis Novelist
