This is a monologue from Dead Poets 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 noble pursuits necessary to sustain life, but poetry, beauty, romance, These are what we stay alive for. To quote, Whitman, owe me a life of the questions, these recurring of the endless trains of the faithless of cities filled with the foolish. What good amid these o me o life, answer that you are here, That life exists and identity, that the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?
