Take your vitamins. Exercise. Just work to love yourself as much as you can - not more than the people around you but not so much less.

Poets are like steam valves, where the ordinary feelings of ordinary people can escape and be shown.

It might be a bad thing, not to know what's going on in the world. I can't say I really approve of it.

The older I get, the more I feel.

To me, the mind seems to be spread out in the whole body - the senses are part of the brain. I guess they're not where the thinking is done.

... sometimes I can feel it, the way we are pouring slowly toward a curve and around it through something dark and soft, and we are bound to each other.

I wish I wrote more about the world at more distance from myself.
