| Plainness has its peculiar temptations quite as much as beauty. |
| Playwriting gets into your blood and you can't stop it. At least not until the producers or the public tell you to. |
| Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things. |
| Poetry may make us from time to time a little more aware of the deeper, unnamed feelings which form the substratum of our being, to which we rarely penetrate; for our lives are mostly a constant evasion of ourselves. |
| Poetry should help, not only to refine the language of the time, but to prevent it from changing too rapidly. |

| So far as we are human, what we do must be either evil or good: so far as we do evil or good, we are human: and it is better, in a paradoxical way, to do evil than to do nothing: at least we exist. |
| So the lover must struggle for words. |
| Some editors are failed writers, but so are most writers. |
