- There is poetry even in prose, in all the great prose which is not merely utilitarian or didactic: there exist poets who write in prose or at least in more or less apparent prose millions of poets write verses which have no connection with poetry.
- This proves that great lyric poetry can die, be reborn, die again, but will always remain one of the most outstanding creations of the human soul.
- True poetry is similar to certain pictures whose owner is unknown and which only a few initiated people know.
