Rhyme, that enslaved queen, that supreme charm of our poetry, that creator of our meter.
Victor Hugo
Image
Rhymes more fresher than a virgin in a 'frigerator.
Lord Finesse
Image
Rhyme is cool again. It's because of hip-hop. Bless you, hip-hop.
Gene Weingarten
Image
Rhymes with push-koo I always say it sounds like a breakfast cereal.
Eliza Dushku
Image
Rhymes, meters, stanza forms, etc., are like servants. If the master is fair enough to win their affection and firm enough to command their respect, the result is an orderly happy household. If he is too tyrannical, they give notice if he lacks authority, they become slovenly, impertinent, drunk and dishonest.
W. H. Auden
Image
Rhyme written in graffiti xeroxed on blueprints, students influenced are now a nuisance.
Louis Eric Barrier
Image
Rhyme is the rock on which thou art to wreck.
John Dryden
Image
Rhyme patterns are nothing without meanings to the words. A lot of rappers can do those flows, but the raps aren't really about anything - which is cool sometimes, but to have the flow and the message is one of my favorite things.
J. Cole
Image
Instead of of being so metaphorical with the rhyme, I was encouraged to go straight at it and hit it dead on and not waste time trying to cover things.
Tupac Shakur
Image
My garden all is overblown with roses,/ My spirit all is overblown with rhyme.
Vita Sackville-West
Image
In our language rhyme is a barrel. A barrel of dynamite. The line is a fuse. The line smoulders to the end and explodes and the town is blown sky-high in a stanza.
Vladimir Mayakovsky
Image
Loafe with me on the grass—loose the stop from your throat Not words, not music or rhyme I want—not custom or lecture, not even the best Only the lull I like, the hum of your valved voice.
Walt Whitman
Image
It has as much to do with the energy released by linguistic fission and fusion, with the buoyancy generated by cadence and tone and rhyme and stanza, as it has to do with the poem's concerns or the poet's truthfulness.
Seamus Heaney
Image
I cast my heart into my rhymes, That you, in the dim coming times, May know how my heart went with them After the red-rose-bordered hem.
William Butler Yeats
Image
Never stop reading. History doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme.
Seth Klarman
Image
O cloud-pale eyelids, dream-dimmed eyes, The poets labouring all their days To build a perfect beauty in rhyme Are overthrown by a woman's gaze.
William Butler Yeats
Image
I dribble rhymes like basketball... People call me 'E.T.' What's that, Shaq man? 'Extra Tall.'
Shaquille O'Neal
Image
Come, fix upon me that accusing eye. I thirst for accusation. All that was sung. All that was said in Ireland is a lie Breed out of the contagion of the throng, Saving the rhyme rats hear before they die.
William Butler Yeats
Image
Think, just blink and I made...a million rhymes. Just imagine if you blinked...a million times. Damn, I'd be paid...I got it made.
Special Ed
Image
Dejection of spirits, which may have prevented many a man from becoming an author, made me one. I find constant employment necessary, and therefore take care to be constantly employed. . . . When I can find no other occupation, I think and when I think, I am very apt to do it in rhyme.
William Cowper
Image
If you want to write a love song, you need to not try to write it for a particular person in a particular situation. It needs to be vague, otherwise you're going to fall into trap after trap of trying to rhyme with somebody's name. Keep it vague.
Stephin Merritt
Image
He was the mighty Fezzik, lover of rhymes, and you did not give up, no matter what.
William Goldman
Image
An emcee is a Master of Ceremonies. If you're an emcee, and I am an emcee... I rhyme, you know what I mean? I do things for my fans that still appreciate me, let them know what's coming.
Styles P
Image
Straight out of Blackpool, I'm William Regal. My rhymes so intense, they shouldn't be legal. My style is refined, not crude and crass. I'll keep you grounded, like volcanic ash. I'll take you down, rung by rung. I'm just like British Parliment I'm completely hung. Straight-up gangsta trippin'. Yes, boy!
William Regal
