Quotes by Wilfred Owen, The Poems Of Wilfred Owen"Red lips are not so red as the stained stones kissed by the English dead."
"Escape? There is one unwatched way: your eyes. O Beauty! Keep me good that secret gate."
"This book is not about heroes. English poetry is not yet fit to speak of them. Nor is it about deeds, or lands, nor anything about glory, honour, might, majesty, dominion, or power, except War. Above all I am not concerned with Poetry. My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity."
"And Death fell with me, like a deepening moan.And He, picking a manner of worm, which half had hidIts bruises in the earth, but crawled no further,Showed me its feet, the feet of many men,And the fresh-severed head of it, my head."
"Some say God caught them even before they fell."
