A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
诗歌
Poetry
What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the print i have read in my life.
你的眼睛在表达什么?在我看来，这比我一生中读过的所有印刷品都要多。
You don't help people in your poems. I've been trying to help people all my life - that's my trouble.
你的诗里没有帮助别人。我一生都在尽力帮助别人——那是我的麻烦。
There'll always be working people in my poems because I grew up with them, and I am a poet of memory.
我的诗里永远有劳动人民，因为我和他们一起长大，我是一个有记忆的诗人。
There is no Frigate like a book to take us lands away nor any coursers like a page of prancing Poetry.

Just a little bit longer, sing: like rain, like sand, like wind in the night, prickling from the poem.
再唱一会儿:像雨，像沙，像夜里的风，刺痛着诗歌。

Bad, quirky poetry might be better than some of the good stuff, because it really comes from the heart.
坏的，古怪的诗歌可能比一些好东西更好，因为它真的来自内心。
Poetry is an act of peace. Peace goes into the making of a poet as flour goes into the making of bread.

See with your soul and not your eyes because to dance with the beasts you must penetrate their disguise.

In fact, in lyric poetry, truthfulness becomes recognizable as a ring of truth within the medium itself.
事实上，在抒情诗中，真实作为一种真实的环在媒介本身中被识别出来。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Poetry expands the senses and keeps them in prime condition. It keeps you aware of your nose, your eye, your ear, your tongue, your hand.
诗歌扩展了人的感官，使之处于最佳状态。它让你意识到你的鼻子，你的眼睛，你的耳朵，你的舌头，你的手。
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.
所有的金子都不会发光， 并不是所有流浪的人都迷路了; 强壮的老人不会枯萎， 霜打不到深根。 将从灰烬中唤醒一团火， 从阴影里射出的光; 折断的刀必重新折断， 无冕者将再次称王。
If poetry comes not as naturally as the leaves to a tree, it had better not come at all.
如果诗歌不像树叶那样自然地长到树上，那它最好根本就不长。

That poetry survived in its formal agencies finally, and that prose survived to get something said.
诗歌最终在它的正式机构中幸存下来，散文幸存下来，得到了表达。
