Kellie ElmorePoetry will die when love and pain cease to exist.
About This Quote
In a world without love, poetry would cease to exist. In a world without pain, poetry would cease to exist. In a world without the great beauty of poetry, we would all be lost. What separates art from other forms of expression is the ability to make us feel things that do not make us feel elsewhere.
We cannot feel beauty without it bringing us pain, and pain without it bringing us love. Without these aspects of art and life, we can never truly appreciate them.
