Outrage and possibility are in all the poems we know.

Breathe-in experience, breathe-out poetry.

Outrage and possibility are in all the poems we know.

There has been in our time a lack of reliance on language and a lack of experimentation which are frightening to anyone who sees them as symptoms. We know the phenomenon of stage-fright: it holds the player shivering, incapable of speech or action. Perhaps there is an audience-fright which the play can feel, which leaves him with these incapacities.

I think there is a choice possible to us at any moment, as long as we live. But there is no sacrifice. There is a choice, and the rest falls away. Second choice does not exist. Beware of those who talk about sacrifice.

Poetry is, above all, an approach to the truth of feeling.

A work of art is one through which the consciousness of the artist is able to give its emotions to anyone who is prepared to receive them.
