it is as unseeing to ask what is the use of poetry as it would be to ask what is the use of religion.

The poet is the complete lover of mankind.

Picasso was a delightful, kindly, friendly, simple little man. When I met him he was extremely excited and overjoyed that his mother-in-law had just died, and he was looking forward to the funeral.

All great poetry is dipped in the dyes of the heart.

My personal hobbies are reading, listening to music, and silence.

Hot water is my native element. I was in it as a baby, and I have never seemed to get out of it ever since.

My poems are hymns of praise to the glory of life.
