I'm not a great poetry fan.

Poetry has been to me its own exceeding great reward it has given me the habit of wishing to discover the good and beautiful in all that meets and surrounds me.

Women do not have as great a need for poetry because their own essence is poetry.

Poetry should be great and unobtrusive a thing which enters into one's soul and does not startle it or amaze it with itself but with its subject.

The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world... to see clearly is poetry prophecy and religion all in one.

I think there's something great and generic about goldfish. They're everybody's first pet.

There are people all over the world who like to write fan letters in the voice of their pet: 'Hello my name is Fifi and I'm a labrador and I think you're great. Paw paw!'

I therefore declare that if you wish any remission of the taxation which falls upon the homes of the people of England and Wales you can only find it by reducing the great military establishments and diminishing the money paid to fighting men in time of peace.

I will try to work for greater reconciliation cooperation and peace in North East Asia based on correct perception of history.

Nothing is more important in the preservation of peace than to secure among the great mass of the people living under constitutional government a just conception of the rights which their nation has against others and of the duties their nation owes to others.
