“We must listen to poets.”
― Gaston Bachelard, The Poetics of Space

“A poet should be so crafty with words that he is envied even for his pains.”
― Criss Jami, Killosophy

“Therefore, since the world has still
Much good, but much less good than ill,
And while the sun and moon endure
Luck's a chance, but trouble's sure,
I'd face it as a wise man would,
And train for ill and not for good.”
― A. E. Housman, A Shropshire Lad

“Keep a journal, and don't assume that your work has to accomplish anything worthy: artists and peace-workers are in it for the long haul, and not to be judged by immediate results.”
― William Edgar Stafford, Every War Has Two Losers: William Stafford on Peace and War
