Unto Quotes

Poetic lines about things that answer only to themselves

The word 'unto' gives these quotes an old-fashioned, poetic weight, especially when describing something that belongs to no category but its own. One writer calls the craft of putting words on a page its own kind of untamed force, while another compares personal imagination to a self-sufficient world. See Eyes quotes for more reflective, introspective lines.

Writing is the beast unto itself.

Quotes by Omar Epps

I was promised on a time - to have reason for my rhyme; From that time unto this season, I received nor rhyme nor reason.

Quotes by Edmund Spenser

My creativity is an entity unto its own.

Quotes by Carole King
