Quote by Ignatius Sancho

“It is with literature as with law or empire — an established name is an estate in tenure, or a throne in possession.”

“I feel like a tragic hero in a Shakespeare play.”

“The root of poetry is in its emotions, its branches in its wording, its flowers in its rhyme and voice, and lastly its final culmination in the fruits of its meaning.”

“If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can warm me I know that is poetry.”
