    Illustrated Poems and Quotes

    Global Studies/History with Visual Arts


    Why are quotes and poems important?
    Motivational quotes provide us with a quick and timely
    burst of wisdom to get our focus back, offering
    the inspiration needed for the day or occasion.
    Often a quote can offer inspiration for the week,
    and inspire us when our normal motivation has lapsed.

    Poetry is so important because it helps us


    understand and appreciate the world around us.
    Poetry's strength lies in its ability to shed a
    “sideways” light on the world, so the truth sneaks up
    on you. ... Poetry teaches us how to live.
    Lincoln’s Gettysburg
    Address
    One of the most memorable and
    important speeches in American History.
