It is a sad fact about our culture that a poet can earn much more money writing or talking about his art than he can by practicing it.
W. H. AudenAnd none will hear the postmanโs knock Without a quickening of the heart. For who can bear to feel himself forgotten?
W. H. AudenLike love we don't know where or why Like love we cant compel or fly Like Love we often weep Like Love we seldom keep
W. H. Auden
