Quote by Christopher Fry
Poetry has the virtue of being able to say twice as much as prose in half the time, and the drawback, if you do not give it your full attention, of seeming to say half as much in twice the time.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the unique power of poetry to convey a depth of meaning and evoke intense emotions in a concise form. By using concise language and vivid imagery, poetry can pack a significant amount of information and evoke complex emotions in a relatively short piece. However, if not given proper attention and concentration, poetry can appear to be less meaningful and can consume more time than its actual length would suggest.
