Shirley Temple on the newspaper introduces popular culture into the writer’s world. The quotes describe how a poet can give voice to those without language and how studying one’s own life becomes a necessary practice. They also speak of breaking taboos and rejecting forced ways of living.
![“[The poet] is endowed to speak for those who do not have the gift of language, or to see for those who - for whatever reasons - are less conscious of what they are living through. It is as though the risks of the poet's existence can be put to some use beyond her own survival.” quote by Adrienne Rich](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/a5d/adrienne-rich-803_conscious_the-poet-is-endowed-to-speak-for-those-w_270364.png)
