John Keats Quotes:

Ocupation: Poet

Life: October 31, 1795 - February 23, 1821

Birthday: October 31

Death: February 23

A poem needs understanding through the senses. The point of diving in a lake is not immediately to swim to the shore; it’s to be in the lake, to luxuriate in the sensation of water. You do not work the lake out. It is an experience beyond thought. Poetry soothes and emboldens the soul to accept mystery.
