"I think one ages and one dates. I tend to have a good deal of difficulty in liking some of the new poets."
Literature

Writing

"I think most people read and re-read the things that they have liked. That's certainly true in my case. I re-read Pound a great deal, I re-read Williams, I re-read Thomas, I re-read the people whom I cam to love when I was at what you might call a formative stage."
