A Chronicle Is Very Different From History

I've Never Read A Political Poem That's Accomplished Anything. Poetry Makes Things Happen, But Rarely What The Poet Wants.

Religion And Science Both Profess Peace (and The Sincerity Of The Professors Is Not Being Doubted), But Each Always Turns Out To Have A Dominant Part In Any War That Is Going Or Contemplated.

Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely; And If You Surrender Your Personal Responsibility To A Government Which Promises To Take Care Of You, They Will Only Take Care Of Themselves.

A Lot Happens By Accident In Poetry.

I Like All My Children, Even The Squat And Ugly Ones.
