Poetry Quote by John Donne — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated... As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher only, but upon the congregation to come: so this bell calls us all... No man is an island, entire of itself... any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.”

“Love's mysteries in souls do grow,”

“The day breaks not: it is my heart.”

“Love, all alike, no season knows nor clime,”

“Licence my roving hands, and let them go”

“At the round earth's imagined corners blow”

“ليسَ من أجلي أنهضُ كلَّ صباحٍ بصوتٍ يتكسرُ”

“The Garden”

“There are three lessons I would write-”

“Poetry, if it has too many layers, should at least lead readers to the openings of the caves the poet built with words and then let them explore on their own! If it does not happen, the travellers might return even without knocking at all!”

“THE SILENT PEOPLE”

“we are the boat”
