Quote by Muriel Rukeyser

Breathe-in experience, breathe-out poetry.

Breathe-in experience, breathe-out poetry.

Summary

This quote means that when we encounter different experiences in life, we should take them in deeply. Then, when we reflect on those experiences and express them through poetry or some form of creative expression, we can release or externalize our interpretations and emotions. The idea is to soak up the richness of life and channel it into artistic expression, using poetry to capture the essence of our lived experiences and share them with others. By doing so, we turn our experiences into art, creating something meaningful and powerful.

My love is as a fever, longing stillFor that which longer nurseth the disease;Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill,The uncertain sickly appetite to please.My reason, the physician to my love,Angry that his prescriptions are not kept,Hath left me, and I desperate now approve,Desire his death, which physic did except.Past cure I am, now reason is past care,And frantic-mad with evermore unrest;My thoughts and my discourse as madmen's are,At random from the truth vainly express'd;For I have sworn thee fair, and thought thee bright,Who art as black as hell, as dark as night.
