Quotes by Stephen Kuusisto  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“We are writing in the age of stylish minimalism that in truth has become even more cautious because of word processing. Nowadays, creative writing students are underwriting rather than overdoing it.”
Stephen Kuusisto

“I had to slow down. If I was going to listen to Venice properly I needed to hear the cadence of the place. I needed to stand still. <...> I thought of Whitman observing the parade of humanity with lewd concentration. Walt had a good ear. He loved opera and knew how to sit perfectly still.”
Stephen Kuusisto, Eavesdropping

“We all face a choice between freedom and grief. The former requires not thinking so much of yourself you forget what road you're on. Modesty is a requirement if you're walking a long way.”
Stephen Kuusisto, Have Dog, Will Travel: A Poet's Journey
