About This Quote

A poet is not an apostle. A poet is not a religious preacher or a teacher. A poet’s job is not to convert people to his or her way of thinking, but to bring people together and understand them in their own terms. A poet brings out the best in people and makes them feel good about themselves, even if they disagree with the point of view expressed in their work.
