把这一句，留给此刻的你
The "I" in the poem is not you but someone who knows a lot about you.
诗中的“我”不是你，而是一个很了解你的人。
— Marvin Bell 马文·贝尔

如果不像历史上所建构的那样具有主观性，那么诗歌中真正表达的内容仍然是个问题。
Thomas Harrison
汤姆斯·哈里森
A poem is never a put-up job, so to speak. It begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It is never a thought to begin with.
可以这么说，诗歌从来就不是一项精心安排的工作。它始于哽咽，一种错误的感觉，一种乡愁，一种相思。这从来就不是一个想法。
Robert Frost
罗伯特·弗罗斯特
I think poetry is the only domain where a writer you like can truly be said to influence you, because you read and reread a poem so many times that it simply drills itself into your head.
我认为诗歌是唯一一个你喜欢的作家能真正影响你的领域，因为你读了又读了那么多遍一首诗，以至于它会在你的脑海中根深蒂固。
Michel Houellebecq
米歇尔·维勒贝克
Peace goes into the making of a poem as flour goes into the making of bread.
和平之于诗，犹如面粉之于面包。
Pablo Neruda
巴勃罗·内鲁达
To say a poem is absolute is saying nothing, because an ink blot can be absolute. Yet you put into it what you like. So it becomes totally relative.
说一首诗是绝对的就等于什么也没说，因为墨迹是绝对的。然而，你把你喜欢的放进它。所以它变得完全相对。
Nicholas Mosley
莫斯利
We turned an anthem into an assignment, a poem into a job description.
我们把一首赞歌变成了一项任务，把一首诗变成了一份工作描述。
