If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can ever warm me, I know that is poetry.

Your absence has gone through me Like thread through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color.

Robert Adamson
罗伯特·亚当森
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
Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world, and makes familiar objects be as if they were not familiar.
诗歌揭开了隐藏在世界之美的面纱，使熟悉的事物仿佛不熟悉一样。
Percy Bysshe Shelley
