You don't make a poem with ideas, but with words.

To define is to kill. To suggest is to create.

The pure work implies the disappearance of the poet as speaker, who hands over to the words.

Every soul is a melody which needs renewing.

As for me, Poetry takes the place of love, because it is enamored of itself, and because this self-lust has a delightful dying fall in my soul.

Everything in the world exists in order to end up as a book.

Poets don't finish poems, they abandon them.
