Poetry Quote by James Wright — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The Jewel”

“In a pine tree,”

“Some hae meat and canna eat,”

“someone's sent”

“Poetry is not a luxury. It is a vital necessity for our existence. It forms the quality of light from which we predicate our hopes and dreams toward survival and change, first into language, then into idea, then into more tangible action.”

“Maybe I hope too much. Maybe I dream too much or maybe I love too much to just give up on you.”

“Poetry is the synthesis of hyacinths and biscuits.”

“I can barely conceive a type of beauty in which there is no melancholy.”
