Quotes
- “I don't consider In Distrust of Merits a poem. It's just a burst of feelings. It's emotion recorded, a 'haphazard form ' a protest.”
- “I have been influenced by the Bible, Bach's music and contemporarily by Pound, Eliot, Stevens, Williams and Hopkins.”
- “A writer is unfair to himself when he is unable to be hard on himself.”
- “Omissions are not accidents.”
- “Everything I have written is the result of reading or of interest in people.”
- “War is pillage versus resistance and if illusions of magnitude could be transmuted into ideals of magnanimity, peace might be realized.”
