Inspiration Inspiration Sit down she said, pen me a few lines, tell me of life, love, hopes and dreams. write to me of much happier times When love ruled your heart, and life it seemed Was full of possibilities, plans and endless schemes. I took up the challenge, and began to write, Of life, of love and hopes and dreams, Words flowed like rivers, as I wrote them down, Thinking all the while of the lady I'd found To inspire my thoughts, and urge me on, To make something beautiful, maybe a song. Into the small hours, I toiled away, writing down lines, throwing them away. 'Twas then that I realised, that the happier times That she spoke of and wanted, were not of that time. For the happier times were not from long ago, But were here with me now, and now I know, That 'twas the love for this lady, that made my words flow, And to write something beautiful, for her, her alone. I wrote of life, and my living with her, Of love, her in my arms forever more, Of hopes, a future for us so bright,...

William Butler Yeats

The Irish poet and dramatist William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) was the leader of the Irish Literary Renaissance during the early 20th century. Yeats\'s early lyrical poetry and drama drew inspiration from Irish legend and occult learning, but his later writing became increasingly engaged with his own time. W. B. Yeats, b. Dublin, June 13, 1865, d. Jan. 28, 1939, was perhaps the greatest English-language poet of the 20th century. The major defining elements of Yeats\'s poetic career were visible by his 24th year. He had formed a profound attachment to the county of Sligo, where he stayed for long periods while living in London (1867-83); his interest in the occult led him to found (1885) the Dublin Hermetic Society and to join (1887) the London Lodge of Theosophists; his 1885 meeting with the nationalist John O\'Leary prompted his discovery of Ireland as a literary subject and his commitment to the cause of Irish national identity; in 1889 he fell in love with Maud Gonne and published...

Rupert Chawner Brooke

Rupert Chawner Brooke (middle name sometimes given as Chaucer)(3 August 1887–23 April 1915) was an English poet known for his idealistic war sonnets written during the First World War (especially The Soldier); however, he never experienced combat at first hand. He was also known for his boyish good looks, which prompted the Irish poet William Butler Yeats to describe him as \"the handsomest young man in England\". English poet Brooke was born at 5 Hillmorton Road in Rugby, Warwickshire, the second of the three sons of William Parker Brooke, a Rugby schoolmaster, and Ruth Mary Brooke, née Cotterill. He attended Hillbrow Prep School before being educated at Rugby School. While travelling in Europe, he prepared a thesis entitled \"John Webster and the Elizabethan Drama\", which won him a scholarship to King\'s College, Cambridge, where he became a member of the Cambridge Apostles, helped found the Marlowe Society drama club and acted in plays including the Cambridge Greek Play. Brooke...

Harry White de Danciu

din Prefață lui Ștefan Doru Dăncuș la cartea: Sânt pentru ca Este Harry White de Danciu s-a născut într-o lume a lacrimei terestre, satul Trestia din Maramureș. Acolo unde copilăria nu se pierde niciodată pe ulițele satului pline de praf, în luna când florile se rup din mugure prevestind învierea lui Isus. S-a risipit în parfumul universului, cu o chitară adesea sub braț, trecănd trist pe străzile întunecate ale unui oraș din România. Un steag, o mașină de tors, o lampă de mină, o piatră de la Chiuzbaia și alte câteva obiecte rustice, reprezintă pentru el zestrea româneascăa printre străaini. Dacă ar fi judecat după acestea, nu poate fi considerat un om bogat; în rest își trăieste viața pentru a putea răspunde la căteva întrebări esențiale pe care și le-a pus. Imaginea lui este mereu aceiași din vremea când a fost învățător în lumea copilăriei sale, pentru că nu există nicăieri pe pămănt un tablou mai frumos decăt acel al întoarcerii Învățătorului. Cartea de față (Sânt pentru ca Este)...

Harry White de Danciu

intreaga Prefață a lui Ștefan Doru Dăncuș la cartea \"Sânt pentru ca Este\" Au apărut în vremurile noastre, pe planetă, milioane de cărți și tot atâtea milioane de monumente ale prostiei și orgoliului de-a fi scriitor cu orice preț. Pădurile pământului au fost exterminate cu sălbăticie pentru a se tipări pe lemnul lor disprețul și aroganța unor indivizi care, în fața Creatorului, descalifică specia umană. Nu este prima dată când spun că lemnul plânge de durere când este imprimat cu stupizenia și obscenitatea umană și vibrează fericit atunci când se aplică pe el cerneala tipografică a Înaltului. Cartea lui Harry White de Danciu a bucurat lemnul sacrificat pentru a fi editată, afirm acum, când piața literară e plină de surogate subordonate mentalității de tarabă. E timpul altor cărți, a venit vremea ca “glorioasa literatură” să apună, să întâmpine cu respect o altă ordonare a literelor, cuvintelor, frazelor și sensului acestora. Omenirea trebuie să învețe altă limbă, una universală,...
