It is not the length of life, but the depth. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"There is creative reading as well as creative writing."

"Every word was once a poem."

"People do not deserve good writing, they are so pleased with bad."

"What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say."

"The secret of poetry is never explained - is always new. We have not got farther than mere wonder at the delicacy of the touch, & the eternity it inherits. In every house a child that in mere play utters oracles, & knows not that they are such. 'Tis as easy as breath. 'Tis like this gravity, which holds the Universe together, & none knows what it is."
