Poetry Making.......Famous quotes....Help???
I'm a 16 years old 4rth year High School Student in Philippines........
..and during times when i get bored ( don't worry.....i'm the kind of guy who focus on his studies..) i do poetry.......i mean I've been fascinated by the famous works of people like Virgil,Dante,Homer,William Shakesphere,Charles Dickens,Victor Hugo,Alexander Pope, etc..
..well i decided to crate my own......
..well before i start, can you give me any Famous quotes??
...and please tell me the author of it..
like this..
To be furious,
Is to be frighted out of fear; and in that mood
The dove will peck the estridge.
------WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, Antony and Cleopatra
"Hypocrite reader--my likeness--my brother!" Baudelaire, The Flowers of Evil
"Who, if I cried out, would hear me among the angelic orders?" Rilke, Duino Elegies 1
Rilke's epitaph:
"Rose, O pure contradiction, desire
To be no one's sleep under so many
Lids."
Yeats's epitaph:
"Cast a cold eye
On Life, on Death:
Horseman, pass by!"
"Tonight I can write the saddest lines." Opening of Neruda's most famous poem
"All life death does end and each day dies with sleep." The ending of one of Gerald Manley Hopkins' 'terrible sonnets.' The series of monosyllables and "d"s mimics the hammering of nails into a coffin.
"When I do count the clock that tells the time" First line of Shakespeare's Sonnet 12 on mortality. The use of single syllable words beginning with the hard "c" and "t" sounds, together with the stressed/unstressed pattern (COUNT the CLOCK that TELLS the TIME) mimics the tick-tock of a clock.
And on a different note:
"I am a fragment of rock thrown into space." --Napoleon
