Only faith and restraint against the tyrant damns the saint.

Democracy! Bah! When I hear that I reach for my feather boa!

Carpe diem.Seize the day, boys.Make your lives extraordinary

...the Moon, the enemy of poets...("Merchant's Two Sons")

A poem is a naked person....Some people say that I am a poet.

I do not write poetry; I take words and dip them in feelings.

If I knew what to doI'd do more than write a song for you

If I’m writing, at least I don’t feel as paralyzed.

I see the life with your sight,O" the love; you're my light.

Every poet — every storyteller — requires motivation.

Rejection is simply redirection to the greatness awaiting for you.

I think that at the bottom of all art lies the impulse to preserve.

Only the poet can look beyond the detail and see the whole picture.

Use all the ugliness you’re feeling to make something beautiful

Today is half of Yesterday and Tomorrow, Choose Today to make Tomorrow
