More from William Wordsworth
"The eye—it cannot choose but see; We cannot bid the ear be still; Our bodies feel, where'er they be, Against or with our will."
"I have no doubt that, in the present state of society, a Poet, by the very act of writing in metre, does in some degree separate himself from the mass of men, and from their immediate sympathy."
"The love of nature is a great thing."
"What is a Poet? To whom does he address himself? And what object hath he proposed to himself?"
"The Poet writes for the pleasure of writing, and for the pleasure of being read."
