About This Quote

Great poetry needs no interpreter other than a responsive heart. In the words of William Shakespeare, "Great poetry needs no interpreter other than a responsive heart." It's one of those quotes that seem to be made for the world of social media because it seems so easy. Yes, great poetry can be appreciated by people who aren't trained in the art. But, the meaning isn't going to be as clear as it would have been if someone had read it aloud or explained it before you heard it.
