Poetry Quote by Vladimir Mayakovsky — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Listen!”

“But I”

“It must be a little love, - a baby, sort of,”

“Our planet is poorly equipped for delight.”

“REQUIEM”

“Only times and places, only names and ghosts.”

“I will go to campus alone dressed in antique silk slips and beat-up cowboy boots and gypsy beads, and I will study poetry. I will sit on the edge of the fountain in the plaza and write.”

“I can’t help but notice that you keep writing love poetry to my wife. Well, you see, I married her, which makes her my wife. You know what you might want to try? Writing some poems about the sunset. The sunset isn’t fucking married.”

“Was not writing poetry a secret transaction, a voice answering a voice?”

“Ideas must work through the brains and arms of men, or they are no better than dreams”
