Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotion know what it means to want to escape from these

D'ailleurs, parce que le vent, comme on dit, n'est pas à la poésie, ce n'est pas un motif pour que la poésie ne prenne pas son envol. Tout au contraire des vaisseaux, les oiseaux ne volent bien que contre le vent. Or la poésie tient de l'oiseau.
Victor Hugo
