In terms of my career, I am glad about the steps and moves that I have made.

Under certain circumstances, urgent circumstances, desperate circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer.

I am not ridiculing verbal mechanisms, dreams, or repressions as origins of poetry; all three of them and more besides may have a great deal to do with it.

So the poet, who wants to be something that he cannot be, and is a failure in plain life, makes up fictitious versions of his predicament that are interesting even to other persons because nobody is a perfect automobile salesman.
