Quotes
- “O pastoral heart of England! like a psalmOf green days telling with a quiet beat.”
- “Only the heelOf splendid steelShall stand secure on sliding fate,When golden navies weep their freight.”
- “I could not find the way to God;There were too many flaming sunsFor signposts, and the fearful roadLed over wastes where millionsOf tangled comets hissed and burned—I was bewildered and I turned.”
- “Whenever you feel an impulse to perpetrate a piece of exceptionally fine writing, obey it—whole-heartedly—and delete it before sending your manuscript to press. Murder your darlings.”
- “All the old statues of Victory have wings: but Grief has no wings. She is the unwelcome lodger that squats on the hearthstone between us and the fire and will not move or be dislodged.”
- “And rather than make the book unwieldy I have eschewed notes—reluctantly when some obscure passage or allusion seemed to ask for a timely word; with more equanimity when the temptation was to criticize or 'appreciate.' For the function of the anthologist includes criticizing in silence.”
