In the world of imagination, all things belong.

Think small.... If you can't think small, try philosophy or social criticism.

Never want to say anything so strongly that you give up the option of finding something better. If you have to say it, you will.

Don't write with a pen. Ink tends to give the impression the words shouldn't be changed.

You owe reality nothing and the truth about your feelings everything.

To write a poem you must have a streak of arrogance-- not in real life I hope. In real life try to be nice. It will save you a hell of a lot of trouble and give you more time to write.

An act of imagination is an act of self-acceptance.
