Quotes by Hugo Claus (Dorothea van Male) about Poetry

Hugo Claus (Dorothea van Male) Novelist, poet, playwright, painter and film director

Go now, verses, on your light feet, you have not trodden hard on the old earth where the graves laugh when they see their guests, the one corpse stacked on top of the other. Go now and stagger to her whom I do not know.

Quote by Hugo Claus about poetry

My verses stand gawping a bit. I never get used to this. They've lived here long enough.
