Thomas Babington Macaulay
麦考莱
As things are, and as fundamentally they must always be, poetry is not a career, but a mug's game. No honest poet can ever feel quite sure of the permanent value of what he has written: He may have wasted his time and messed up his life for nothing.
诗歌不是一种职业，而是一种徒劳无益的游戏。没有一个诚实的诗人能对他所写的东西的永久价值有十足的把握:他可能白白浪费了时间，把生活搞得一团糟。
T. S. Eliot
T.S.艾略特
Well, probably I was fed up with concrete poetry. There was a lot of bad concrete poetry and besides, it was confused with visual poetry which was completely different.
也许我受够了具体的诗歌。有很多不好的具体诗歌，此外，它与视觉诗歌混淆，这是完全不同的。

I would especially like to recourt the Muse of poetry, who ran off with the mailman four years ago, and drops me only a scribbled postcard from time to time.
我特别想引用诗神的话，她四年前和邮递员私奔了，只是偶尔给我寄来一张潦草的明信片。
