"Every poem should remind the reader that they are going to die."

"Even in the grave, all is not lost."

"I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity."

"With me poetry has not been a purpose, but a passion."

"The idea of God, infinity, or spirit stands for the possible attempt at an impossible conception."
