Czech Poetry

A line is a fuse that's lit. The line smolders, the rhyme explodes— and by a stanza a city is blown to bits. - Vladimir Mayakovski What doesn't hurt - is not life; what doesn't pass - is not happiness. - Ivo Andrić No one has the right to enter literature without fresh new ideas. We’ve got too many dexterous drudges as it is. - Jan Neruda
