"One will never again look at a birch tree, after the Robert Frost poem, in exactly the same way." ― Paul Muldoon Topic(s): Poetry More From Paul Muldoon "The other side of it is that, despite all that, people reach out to poetry at the key moments in their lives." "We simply have not kept in touch with poetry." "That’s one of the great things about poetry; one realises that one does one’s little turn – that you’re just part of the great crop, as it were." More In Poetry "Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things."― T. S. Eliot "The best thing about acting is that I get to lose myself in another character and actually get paid for it… It’s a great outlet. I’m not really sure who I am – it seems I change every day."― Leonardo DiCaprio "There is something about poetry beyond prose logic, there is mystery in it, not to be explained but admired."― Edward Young
