Quotes › Authors › W › W. H. Auden › The element of craftsmanship in poetry is obscured
  • The element of craftsmanship in poetry is obscured by the fact that all men are taught to speak and most to read and write, while very few men are taught to draw or paint or write music.

    W. H. Auden: The element of craftsmanship in poetry is obscured by the fact that all men are taught to speak and most to read and write, while very few men are taught to draw or paint or write music.
    W. H. Auden
