Quote by Victor Leconte de Lisle

"The poet is a light and winged thing, and holy, and unable to compose until he becomes inspired and goes out of his mind."

"Art is the effort of man to express the unspressed."

"Beauty is the promise of happiness."

"Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood."

"The pen is mightier than the sword."

"Literature opens the mind to new worlds"

"The interesting thing about books is that they're made of words."

"Literature captures the essence of what it means to be human."
