“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And medicine, law, business, engineering – these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love – these are what we stay alive for.”
(Robin Williams, Dead Poets Society, 1989)
“There is nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline no matter how many times it’s sent away.”
(Sarah Kay, B/If I Should Have a Daughter)
