A Poet Must Never Make A Statement

My Poetry Doesn't Change From Place To Place - It Changes With The Years. It's Very Important To Be One's Age. You Get Ideas You Have To Turn Down - 'i'm Sorry, No Longer'; 'i'm Sorry, Not Yet.

A Poet's Hope: To Be, Like Some Valley Cheese, Local, But Prized Elsewhere.

Sob, Heavy World Sob As You Spin, Mantled In Mist Remote From The Happy.

A Writer Is A Maker, Not A Man Of Action: His Private Life Is Of No Concern To Anybody But Himself, His Family And His Friends.

When I Am In The Company Of Scientists, I Feel Like A Shabby Curate Who Has Strayed By Mistake Into A Drawing Room Full Of Dukes.
