When forced to work within a strict framework, the imagination is taxed to its utmost and will produce its richest ideas. Given total freedom, the work is likely to sprawl.
T. S. Eliot
Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think
T. S. Eliot
Time present and time past Are both perhaps present in time future, And time future contained in time past. If all time is eternally present All time is unredeemable.
T. S. Eliot
No artist produces great art by a deliberate attempt to express his own personality.
T. S. Eliot
A condition of complete simplicity (Costing not less than everything)
T. S. Eliot
Although I do not hope to turn again Although I do not hope Although I do not hope to turn
T. S. Eliot
Here between the hither and the farther shore While time is withdrawn, consider the future And the past with an equal mind.
T. S. Eliot
Those who say they give the public what it wants begin by underestimating public taste and end by debauching it.
T. S. Eliot
Whatever you think, be sure it is what you think whatever you want, be sure that is what you want whatever you feel, be sure that is what you feel.
T. S. Eliot
No poet, no artist of any art, has his complete meaning alone.
T. S. Eliot
This is the way the world ends, not with a bang, but a whimper.
T. S. Eliot
All cases are unique and very similar to others.
T. S. Eliot
When a poet's mind is perfectly equipped for its work, it is constantly amalgamating disparate experience ?in the mind of the poet these experiences are always forming new wholes.
T. S. Eliot
It is self-evident that St. Louis affected me more deeply than any other environment has ever done. I feel that there is something in having passed one's childhood beside the big river, which is incommunicable to those people who have not. I consider myself fortunate to have been born here, rather than in Boston, or New York, or London.
T. S. Eliot
For every life and every act consequence of good and evil can be shown and as in time results of many deeds are blended so good and evil in the end become confounded.
T. S. Eliot
