Robert Penn Warren Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: April 24, 1905 - September 15, 1989
Birthday: April 24
Death: September 15
The poem . . . is a little myth of man's capacity of making life meaningful. And in the end, the poem is not a thing we see-it is, rather, a light by which we may see-and what we see is life.
