"I am two fools, I know, for loving, and for saying so in whining poetry." ― John Donne Topic(s): Poetry More From John Donne "He must pull out his own eyes, and see no creature, before he can say, he sees no God; He must be no man, and quench his reasonable soul, before he can say to himself, there is no God." "No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face." "Reason is our soul’s left hand, faith her right." More In Poetry "Poetry is one of the destinies of speech… One would say that the poetic image, in its newness, opens a future to language."― Gaston Bachelard "The more unsettling the more I feel at home."― Kat Dennings "One of the most powerful devices of poetry is the use of distortions. You can go from talking about the way a minute passes to the way a century passes, or a lifetime."― Robert Morgan
