"Each memorable verse of a true poet has two or three times the written content." ― Alfred de Musset Topic(s): Poetry More From Alfred de Musset "There is no worse sorrow than remembering happiness in the day of sorrow." "One must not trifle with love." More In Poetry "I prefer ordinary girls – you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn’t mean we are dating."― Leonardo DiCaprio "Everyone needs solitude, especially a person who is used to thinking about what she experiences. Solitude is very important in my work as a mode of inspiration, but isolation is not good in this respect. I am not writing poetry about isolation."― Wislawa Szymborska "A poet’s autobiography is his poetry. Anything else is just a footnote."― Yevgeny Yevtushenko
