E. M. Forster
-
What is the good of your stars and trees, your sunrise and the wind, if they do not enter into our daily lives?
-
England has always been disinclined to accept human nature.
-
A poem is true if it hangs together. Information points to something else. A poem points to nothing but itself.
-
The sort of poetry I seek resides in objects man can't touch.
-
The people I respect most behave as if they were immortal and as if society was eternal.
