Poetry Quote by Sylvia Plath — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“What I fear most, I think, is the death of the imagination.”

“The moon is no door. It is a face in its own right,”

“I lean to you, numb as a fossil. Tell me I'm here.”

“Dying”

“I am solitary as grass. What is it I miss?”

“I’ll never speak to God again.”

“Never cry because you have mountains of problem in your hands to solve. Always smile because each problems will someday resolve.”

“Un día habré dormido con un sueño tan largo que ni tus besos puedan avivar el letargo. Un día estaré sola, como está la montaña entre el largo desierto y la mar que la baña.”

“Laser technology has fulfilled our people's ancient dream of a blade so fine that the person it cuts remains standing and alive until he moves and cleaves. Until we move, none of us can be sure that we have not already been cut in half, or in many pieces, by a blade of light. It is safest to assume that our throats have already been slit, that the slightest alteration in our postures will cause the painless severance of our heads.”

“When you choose to be a poet,”

“She sat in her perfect house,”

“Poetry is the shadow cast by our streetlight imaginations.”
