Any knowledge that doesnt lead to new questions quickly dies out: it fails to maintain the temperature required for sustaining life. – Wislawa Szymborska
Poetic talent doesnt operate in a vacuum. There is a spirit of Polish poetry. – Wislawa Szymborska
Let the people who never find true love keep saying that theres no such thing. Their faith will make it easier for them to live and die. – Wislawa Szymborska
In the language of poetry, where every word is weighed, nothing is usual or normal. Not a single stone and not a single cloud above it. Not a single day and not a single night after it. And above all, not a single existence, not anyones existence in this world. – Wislawa Szymborska
