The Poet Is The Complete Lover Of

By 'happiness' I Do Not Mean Worldly Success Or Outside Approval, Though It Would Be Priggish To Deny That Both These Things Are Most Agreeable. I Mean The Inner Consciousness, The Inner Conviction That One Is Doing Well The Thing That One Is Best Fitted To Do By Nature.

All Great Poetry Is Dipped In The Dyes Of The Heart.

Why Not Be Oneself? That Is The Whole Secret Of A Successful Appearance. If One Is A Greyhound, Why Try To Look Like A Pekingese?

Another Little Drink Wouldn't Do Us Any Harm.

It Is Part Of The Poet's Work To Show Each Man What He Sees But Does Not Know He Sees.
