I've forgotten most of what I've read and, frankly, it never seemed very important to me or to the world.
My two great heroes are W. B. Yeats and Federico GarcΓa Lorca.
The older I get, the surer I am that I'm not running the show.
I was born in a suit.
I am an old scholar, better-looking now than when I was young. That's what sitting on your ass does to your face.
I was 15 when I first became deeply touched by the rhythm and structure of words.
