What thou lovest well remains...

What thou lovest well remains, the rest is dross What thou lov’st well shall not be reft from thee What thou lov’st well is thy true heritage

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

The apparition of these faces...

The apparition of these faces in the crowd; Petals on a wet black bough.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

What thou lovest well remains...

What thou lovest well remains, the rest is dross What thou lov'st well shall not be reft from thee What thou lov'st well is thy true heritage Whose world, or mine or theirs or is it of none? First came the seen, then thus the palpable Elysium, though it were in the halls of hell. What thou lovest well is thy true heritage.

The author's conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.

Anyone who is too lazy to master the comparatively small glossary necessary to understand Chaucer deserves to be shut out from the reading of good books forever.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

The phase of the usury system...

The phase of the usury system which we are trying to analyze is more or less Patterson's perception that the Bank of England could have benefit of all the interest on all the money that it creates out of nothing. ... Now the American citizen can, of course, appeal to his constitution, which states that Congress shall have power to coin money or regulate the value thereof and of foreign coin. Such appeal is perhaps quixotic.

The flavors of the peach and the apricot are not lost from generation to generation. Neither are they transmitted by book learning.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

The secret of popular writing...

The secret of popular writing is never to put more on a given page than the common reader can lap off it with no strain whatsoever on his habitually slack attention.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

The sum of human wisdom is no...

The sum of human wisdom is not contained in any one language, and no single language is capable of expressing all forms and degrees of human comprehension.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

There is natural ignorance and there is artificial ignorance. I should say at the present moment the artificial ignorance is about eighty-five per cent.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

No good poetry is ever writte...

No good poetry is ever written in a manner twenty years old, for to write in such a manner shows conclusively that the writer thinks from books, convention and clich?, not from real life.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

A classic is classic not beca...

A classic is classic not because it conforms to certain structural rules, or fits certain definitions It is classic because of a certain eternal and irrepressible freshness.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

When words cease to cling close to things, kingdoms fall, empires wane and diminish.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

Wars in old times were made to get slaves. The modern implement of imposing slavery is debt.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

Seems fairly clear that you fix a breed by LIMITING the amount of alien infiltration. You make a race by homogeneity and by avoiding INbreeding.... No argument has ever been sprouted against it. You like it in dogs and horses.

The sum of human wisdom is not contained in any one language.

Technique is the test of sincerity.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

The only chance for victory o...

The only chance for victory over the brainwash is the right of every man to have his ideas judged one at a time. You never get clarity as long as you have these packaged words, as long as a word is used by twenty-five people in twenty-five different ways. That seems to me to be the first fight, if there is going to be any intellect left.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

What matters is not the idea a man holds, but the depth at which he holds it.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

To say that a state cannot pursue its aims because there is no money, is like saying that an engineer cannot build roads, because there are no kilometers.
