Ezra Weston Loomis Pound (30 October 1885 – 1 November 1972)became known for his role in developing Imagism, which, in reaction to the Victorian and Georgian poets, favored tight language, unadorned imagery, and a strong correspondence between the verbal and musical qualities of the verse and the mood it expressed.After teaching Romance Languages at Wabash College in Indiana for two years, he resigned and travelled to Spain, Italy and England. He became interested in the poetry of the Chinese and Japanese.He founded the Imagist movement in poetry, which encouraged experimenting with different verse forms, and opposed representational art in favor of abstract forms.

#10 the best advice i ever recieved

The best advice i ever recieved wasn't from anyone i really knew but from the one and only DRAKE(: One of my favorite rappers. In one of his songs he states "Live without pretending,Love without depending, Listen without defending, Speak without offending." I really like this because hes telling you not to be fake, needy, and rude. If anyone were to live like this then they would be a really true and general person. Every time im having trouble i can look at this and know that i can change my ways.
