Quotes by William Butler Yeats

Irish dramatist & poet (1865 - 1939)

Think like a wise man but communicate in the language of the people.

Have not all races had their first unity from a mythology that marries them to rock and hill?

We taste and feel and see the truth. We do not reason outselves into it.

Our own acts are isolated and one act does not buy absolution for another.

A pity beyond all telling is hid in the heart of love.

An aged man is but a paltry thing, a tattered coat upon a stick.

And say my glory was I had such friends.

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.
