Dylan Thomas Quotes


A Welsh poet and writer who wrote exclusively in English.
Dylan Marlais Thomas (27 October 1914 – 9 November 1953) was a Welsh poet and writer who wrote exclusively in English. In addition to poetry, he wrote short stories and scripts for film and radio, which he often performed himself. His public readings, particularly in America, won him great acclaim; his sonorous voice with a subtle Welsh lilt became almost as famous as his works. His best-known works include the "play for voices" Under Milk Wood and the celebrated villanelle for his dying father, "Do not go gentle into that good night". Appreciative critics have also noted the craftsmanship and compression of poems such as "In my Craft or Sullen Art" and the rhapsodic lyricism of "Fern Hill'".

Here are some famous quotes by Dylan Thomas.

The function of posterity is to look after itself.

[MysteRy]

My education was the liberty I had to read indiscriminately and all the time with my eyes hanging out.

[MysteRy]

Do not go gentle into that good night Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage rage against the dying of the light.

[MysteRy]

A good poem is a contribution to reality. The world is never the same once a good poem has been added to it. A good poem helps to change the shape and significance of the universe helps to extend everyone's knowledge of himself and the world around him.
