We Don't Read and Write Poetry Because it's Cute | Dead Poet Society

Inspiration from Movie:

[ Dead Poet Society ]

"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are all noble pursuits, and necessary to sustain life.
 

But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
To quote from Whitman, "O me, o life, of the questions of these recurring, of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities filled with the foolish. What good amid these, o me, o life? The answer: that you are here, and life exists, and identity. That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse."

"That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse" Mr. Keating repeated. Everyone was silent.

"What will your verse be?" Mr. Keating concluded.

 

 

 [ Inspiration ]

We must appreciate poetry,
simply because we are human, 

simply because it is what we dying for,

fighting for!

Seize the Day, Carpe Diem!!!

  

Movie's Quote: John Keating in Dead Poet Society

"They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel.--They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? - - Carpe - - hear it? - - Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary."

Inspiration: 

If you got a dream, work for it, don't waste your time, start from this very second, 
SEIZE THE DAY!!! CARPE DIEM!!!
