"我不是作家，我是一个词。"

The mystery of the beginning of all things is insoluble by us; and I for one must be content to remain an agnostic.  

The best art changes the way we see the world, not just the way we see art.

The true discovery of America is before us. The true fulfillment of our spirit, of our people, of our mighty and immortal land, is yet to come.

我也没有像鸟禽一般地歌唱，我只静静地微笑，笑我自己幸福无涯。

诗人的职责是照亮黑暗。
