Wisdom is having things right in your life and knowing why.

My question is "when did other people give up the idea of being a poet?" You know, when we are kids we make up things, we write, and for me the puzzle is not that some people are still writing, the real question is why did the other people stop?

A poem is a serious joke, a truth that has learned jujitsu.

'Be alive,' the land says, 'listen - this is your time, your world, your pleasure.'

You shouldn't have standards that inhibit you from writing It really doesn't make any difference if you are good or bad today. The assessment of the product is something that happens after you've done it.

Wisdom is having things right in your life and knowing why.

There is no such thing as writer's block for writers whose standards are low enough.
