W.B.Yeats Quotations

 

 

William Butler Yeats, Irish Poet, 1856-1939  Nobel Prize 1923

 

 
For maximum enjoyment the site editor suggests you sit down comfortably with your Collected Works of W.B.Yeats and browse at leisure; in humbly choosing our tags, we have left Yeats' major work largely (although not entirely) undisturbed. But for those who wish rapidly to identify the source of the Yeats quotations used on this site, here is a list: on the left the page in the Carl Selph Poetry Archives where the tag appears, on the right the Yeats poem from which it has been drawn.
