Ransom "For no art and no religion is possible until we make allowances, until we manage to keep quiet the enfant terrible of logic that plays havoc with the other faculties." "And how can poetry stand up against its new conditions? Its position is perfectly precarious." More In Poetry "A woman’s two cents worth is worth two cents in the music business."― Loretta Lynn "Few of the many wise apothegms which have been uttered have prevented a single foolish action."― Thomas B. Macaulay "Poetry is a mirror which makes beautiful that which is distorted."― Percy Bysshe Shelley
