About This Quote

When a poet digs himself into a hole, he doesn't climb out. He digs deeper, enjoys the scenery, and comes out the other side enlightened. A poet is someone who writes and creates art. Digging yourself into a hole is when you get stuck in a situation where you are not able to move forward.

The best thing about digging yourself deeper is that it usually leads to something good happening. Digging yourself into a hole is like you getting stuck in a rut or riddle that you can’t escape from. It can be very discouraging, but in most cases, there is a positive outcome.

If you have been in an emotional rut or have been stuck with a riddle for too long, it’s time to dig yourself up and start over again.
