Love from poets quotes:

But the lover's power is the poet's power. He can make love from all the common strings with which this world is strung. -- Amelia Barr
If you have so earth-creeping a mind that it cannot lift itself up to look to the sky of poetry... thus much curse I must send you, in the behalf of all poets, that while you live, you live in love, and never get favour for lacking skill of a sonnet; and, when you die, your memory die from the earth for want of an epitaph. -- Philip Sidney
I'm afraid I take ... this rather clinical view of love: it's saving you from madness. I'm not so enthusiastic as other poets have been. -- William Empson
