A good writer, and one who writes with care, often finds that the expression he's spent a long time hunting for without finding it, and which he finds at last, turns out to be the simplest and most natural one, which looks as if it ought to have occured to him at the beginning, without any effort. -Jean de la Bruyere 1645-96

Poetry is the opening and closing of a door, leaving those who look through to guess about what is seen during a moment. - CarlSandburg 1876-1967

Painting is silent poetry, poetry is eloquent painting -Simonides c.556-468BC: Plutarch Moralia
