It is no profit to have learned well, if you neglect to do well.
Are you to pay for all you have with all you are?
Great art is as irrational as great music. It is mad with its own loveliness.

And now there is merely silence, silence, silence, saying all we did not know.
Words ought to be a little wild, for they are the assault of thoughts on the unthinking.
For man, as for flower and beast and bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vividly, most perfectly alive.
Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood.
