We need quiet time to examine our lives openly and honestly...spending quiet time alone gives your mind an opportunity to renew itself and create order.- Susan Taylor--Everyone has a talent. What is rare is the courage to nurture it in solitude and to follow the talent to the dark places where it leads.

You don't get to choose what you get famous for and you don't get to control which of your life's many struggles gets to stand for you.

Underneath it all, you longed to be annihilated by love.

I never became a writer for the money. I am a poet first. Even getting published is a miracle for poets.

I want you. I want you. I want you. Anything to avoid saying: I love you.

It takes a spasm of love to write a poem.

Souls have neither Sex nor Colour.
