Kris Kristofferson: Tell the truth. Sing with passion. Work with laughter. Love with heart. 'Cause that's all that matters in the end.”

Joseph Roux: Poetry is truth in it's Sunday clothes."

Robert Graves: "A perfect poem is impossible. Once it had been written the world would end."

William Hazlitt: "Poetry is the universal language which the heart holds with nature and itself"

Kahlil Gibran "Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary."
