A poem is good until one knows by whom it is.

A plagiarist should be made to copy the author a hundred times.

When I don't make any progress, it is because I have bumped into the wall of language. Then I draw back with a bloody head. And would like to go on.

I trim my opponents to fit my arrows.

Let my style capture all the sounds of my time. This should make it an annoyance to my contemporaries. But later generations should hold it to their ears like a seashell in which there is the music of an ocean of mud.

He who does without the praise of the crowd will not deny himself an opportunity to be his own adherent.

Truth is a clumsy servant that breaks the dishes while washing them.
