Poetry Quote by Subramaniya Bharathiyar — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I am too alone in the world, and yet not alone enough”

“Talent is a faucet. When it is on, one must write. Inspiration is a farce that poets have invented to give themselves importance.”

“It’s the fire in my eyes,”

“With you a part of me hath passed away;”

“First, I thought, almost despairing,”

“I wrote poetry from the time I could write. That was the only way I could begin to express who I was but the poems didn't make sense to my teachers. They didn't rhyme. They were about the wind sounds, the planets' motions, never about who I was or how I felt. I didn't think I felt anything. I was this mind more than a body or a heart. My mind photographing the stars, hearing the wind.”
