Poetry Quote by Edna St. Vincent Millay — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“And all at once the heavy night”

“My candle burns at both ends;”

“Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave”

“Well, I have lost you; and I lost you fairly;”

“I will come back to you, I swear I will;”

“Life must go on; I forget just why.”

“A poet is simply an artist whose medium is human emotions.  A poet chisels away at our own sensibilities, shaping our vision while molding our hearts.  A poet wraps words around our own feelings and presents them as fresh gifts to humanity.”

“When words lose their meaning, physical force takes over.”

“I love a sunburnt country,”

“Take this kiss upon the brow!”

“I dream of lost vocabularies that might express some of what we no longer can.”

“among the clouds”
