Imagination
"Most people read poetry listening for echoes because the echoes are familiar to them. They wade through it the way a boy wades through water, feeling with his toes for the bottom: The echoes are the bottom."
Poetry
"In the world of words, the imagination is one of the forces of nature."
Imagination
"The imagination is man's power over nature."
Imagination
"The genuine artist is never "true to life." He sees what is real, but not as we are normally aware of it. We do not go storming through life like actors in a play. Art is never real life."
Life
"Everything is complicated; if that were not so, life and poetry and everything else would be a bore."
Life
"Style is not something applied. It is something that permeates. It is of the nature of that in which it is found, whether the poem, the manner of a god, the bearing of a man. It is not a dress."
Nature
"Nothing could be more inappropriate to American literature than its English source since the Americans are not British in sensibility."
Literature
"Thought is an infection. In the case of certain thoughts, it becomes an epidemic."
Thought
"The philosopher proves that the philosopher exists. The poet merely enjoys existence."
Existence
