Poetry Quote by John Gillespie MaGee Jr. — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“depth and substance.”

“Hope is the thing with feathers”

“So many things I had thought forgotten”

“When one does something, one must do it wholly and well. Those bastard existences where you sell suet all day and write poetry at night are made for mediocre minds – like those horses that are equally good for saddle and carriage, the worst kind, that can neither jump a ditch nor pull a plow.”

“What is the colour of Christmas?”

“I think of love, and you, and my heart grows full and warm, and my breath stands still.”
