I’m real proud of you. No, not just you. I’m proud of the whole history that created you. After all, you picked up our baton and ran with it far enough to get here.

As a student, vainly did I believe that I held the secrets of creation in my grasp. Yet that which I had siezed was but an insignificant sliver of what awaited in the wider world.

Then open your eyes, my accomplice! Open your eyes and extend your hand to the sky! As the Roman emperor says, there is nothing beyond your reach! You may continue to rebel down to your last cell, let loose a battle cry, & stretch your hand out towards the one you love!

There is an infinity of prospects racing in infinity with an infinity of intersecting shadows racing into infinity. All Petersburg is the infinity of a prospect raised to the power of n. While beyond Petersburg there is– nothing.

Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword. Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know. I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door.

What is gazing at us behind the mask? Is it not the void staring at us? What are we to do if we rip off the mask and see that nobody is concealed behind it?

Well, my feet they finally took root in the earth but I got me a nice little place in the stars. And I swear I found the key to the Universe in the engine of an old parked car.

I open my heart enough to let a moth fly in, then trap it. I'm sorry to say that's how poems are made. One eye on each wing, this whole-body blinking.

Why do those human rabble smile, and what gives them the will to live? The world is full of drama and tragedy, but the lives that desperately strive to live in spite of that are so sorrowful, courageous… dazzling, and dear-

This is how it is with love. Once invited, it steps in gently, circles twice, and takes up as much space as you will give it.

Your death must be loved this much. You have to know the grief—now. Standing by the water’s edge, looking down at the wave touching you.

'But a man is not a horse,' said the old shoemaker and worked on my stiff new shoes till they were soft. And suddenly I had to cry from all that love poured out over me.

They’re lovely dark, and deep, which is what I want, deep lovely darkness. No one has asked, let alone taken, a promise of me, no one will notice if I choose bed or rug, couch or forest deep. It doesn’t matter where I sleep.

Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good. That good always triumphs over evil. That true love never dies. Doesn’t matter if they’re true or not.

The epoch of geniuses and great thinkers has passed. Here and there they are being replaced by personalities in whom we see a prophetic pathos and who are destined to unite life with mystery.
