I cant look at things in the simple, large way that great poets do.
I never joined the army for patriotic reasons.
I can only say that one's individual situation is more real and important to oneself than the devastations of fates and empires especially when they do not vitally affect oneself
Nobody ever told me what to read, or ever put poetry in my way
Poetical appreciation is only newly bursting on me.
The darkness crumbles away It is the same old druid Time as ever.
