Every word was once a poem.
Earth laughs in flowers.
Music is the poor man's Parnassus.
The poet knows that he speaks adequately, then, only when he speaks somewhat wildly.
The poorest experience is rich enough for all the purposes of expressing thought
Every book is a quotation; and every house is a quotation out of all forests, and mines, and stone quarries; and every man is a quotation from all his ancestors.
