Christmas

Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs rising or falling grasping at kisses and toys advancing boldly sudden to take alarm retreating to the corner of arm and knee eager to be reassured taking pleasure in the fragrant brilliance of the Christmas tree.

Time

Television is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time and yet remain lonesome.

Time

We shall not cease from exploration and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.

Religion

We know too much and are convinced of too little. Our literature is a substitute for religion and so is our religion.

Poetry

As things are and as fundamentally they must always be poetry is not a career but a mug's game. No honest poet can ever feel quite sure of the permanent value of what he has written: He may have wasted his time and messed up his life for nothing.

Poetry

Poetry may make us from time to time a little more aware of the deeper unnamed feelings which form the substratum of our being to which we rarely penetrate for our lives are mostly a constant evasion of ourselves.
