Men dislike being awakened from their death in life.
Poets in our civilization, as it exists at present, must be difficult...The poet must become more and more comprehensive, more allusive, more indirect, in order to force, to dislocate if necessary, language into its meaning.
There is no escape from metre; there is only mastery.
For us, there is only the trying. The rest is not our business.
The purpose of literature is to turn blood into ink.
The sense of wellbeing! Its often with us When we are young, but then it's not noticed; And by the time one has grown to consciousness It comes less often.
