“Leprechauns, castles, good luck and laughter.Lullabies, dreams and love ever after. Poems and songs with pipes and drums. A thousand welcomes when anyone comes... That's the Irish for you!”
Irish Sayings
“The songs are the questions and the poems are the answers.”
J C A Rowe
“Do I love you because you're beautiful, or are you beautiful because I love you? Am I making believe I see in you, a woman too perfect to be really true? Do I want you because you're wonderful, or are you wonderful because I want you? Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream, or are you really as beautiful as you seem?”
Oscar Hammerstein II
“The song of the rose is heard with the nose.”
Rain Bojangles
“In your light I learn how to love.In your beauty, how to make poems.You dance inside my chest,where no one sees you.”
Jalal ad-Din Rumi
“In the phrases of songs and poems bread is gold, it is the motherland, it is the hard work of the masses, it is life itself.”
Seth Mydans
“It's awfully hard to fit my poems into song, ... I have a hard time fitting the poetic stanza into the timed meter of the music stanza, because you always have to end with a rhyme and there's always a beat.”
Jewel
