T. S. Eliot
Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things.

Don't pray when it rains...In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell...It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment...No one should have to choose between medicine...The real and lasting victories are those of peace...A society that gets rid of all its troublemakers...
