“Love is poetry, poetry is love”
“Is not poetry the food of love?”
“Love is the poetry of the senses!”
“What you have to realize when you write poetry, or if you love poetry, is that poetry is just naturally the greatest god damn thing that ever was in the whole universe”
“We tried poetry. We tried love.”
“The measure of one's love for good poetry and for good music is the hatred, the violent hatred, one feels for bad poetry and bad music.”
