― Edge of Wonder: Notes from the Wildness of Being
― Edge of Wonder: Notes from the Wildness of Being
“If you want to be a grocer, or a general, or a politician, or a judge, you will invariably become it; that is your punishment. If you never know what you want to be, if you live what some might call the dynamic life but what I will call the artistic life, if each day you are unsure of who you are and what you know you will never become anything, and that is your reward.”

“Say to them,
say to the down-keepers,
the sun-slappers,
the self-soilers,
the harmony-hushers,

Live not for battles won.
Live not for the-end-of-the-song.
Live in the along.”
― Selected Poems

I want.”
