Famous Quotes by John Keats

Below are famous quotes by John Keats - English lyric poet (1795 - 1821).

I love you the more that I believe you have liked me for my own sake and for nothing else.

Poetry should please by a fine excess and not by singularity. It should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost as a remembrance.

Orbed is the moon and bright,
And the stars they glisten, glisten,
Seeming with bright eyes to listen
For what listen they?

What the imagination seizes as beauty must be the truth.
