God and the imagination are one.

...after a night spent writing poetry, one is almost happy to hear the milkman at the door.

The imagination is the liberty of the mind It is intrpeid and eager and the extreme of its achievement lies in abstraction.

Most poets who have little or nothing to say are concerned primarily with the way in which they say it ... if it is true that the style of a poem and the poem itself are one, ... it may be ... that the poets who have little or nothing to say are, or will be, the poets that matter.

Life is an affair of people not of places. But for me, life is an affair of places and that is the trouble.

After the leaves have fallen, we return To a plain sense of things. It is as if We had come to an end of the imagination, Inanimate in an inert savoir.

It is necessary to any originality to have the courage to be an amateur.
