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.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

The apparition of these faces...

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

Poetry must be as well written as prose.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

Poetry is a very complex art.... It is an art of pure sound bound in through an art of arbitrary and conventional symbols.

Mass ought to be in Latin, unless you could do it in Greek or Chinese. In fact, any abracadabra that no bloody member of the public or half-educated ape of a clargimint could think he understood.

Bureaucrats are a pox. They are supposed to be necessary. Certain chemicals in the body are supposed to be necessary to life, but cause death the moment they increase beyond a suitable limit

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

Religion I have defined as "Another of those numerous failures resulting from an attempt to popularize art".

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

And New York is the most beaut...

And New York is the most beautiful city in the world? It is not far from it. No urban night is like the night there... Squares after squares of flame, set up and cut into the aether. Here is our poetry, for we have pulled down the stars to our will.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

Music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance... poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music.

I could I trust starve like a gentleman. It's listed as part of the poetic training, you know.

Colloquial poetry is to the real art as the barber's wax dummy is to sculpture.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

Men do not understand books until they have a certain amount of life, or at any rate no man understands a deep book, until he has seen and lived at least part of its contents.

Ezra Pound 274 quotes

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

What matters most is not the idea, but the capacity to believe in it completely.
