I can’t think of a case where poems changed the world, but what they do is they change people’s understanding of what’s going on in the world.
Seamus Heaney Quotes
Showing all quotes-
She taught me what her uncle once taught her: How easily the biggest coal block split If you got the grain and hammer angled right. The sound of that relaxed alluring blow, Its co-opted and obliterated echo, Taught me to hit, taught me to loosen, Taught me between the hammer and the block To face the music. Teach me now to listen, To strike it rich behind the linear black.
