“Newspapers are even worse for me than ice cream; headlines, and the big issues that generate the headlines, are pure fat.”
“But big headlines in the papers every day, and whatever the newspaper and the radio say in this country, that's the people Bible.”
“. . . and even the worst ice cream is better than no ice cream.”
“I think of a poem as being deeper than headline news.”
“I have never seen a newspaper headline where those in spirit, without physical bodies, carried out evil deeds like a mugger in a parking lot.”
“You know, people always look at that headline as me being "outed," but you can ask anyone, I couldn't even find a closet with a map!”
