"We thought doing something that was just gentle and beautiful would be quite surprising."

The massed balloons of the Sky Orchestra took off at 6.30am, broadcasting a piece written by Dan Jones. The flutes and oboes, bird song and whale calls, were based on scientific research to promote deeper and sweeter dreams.

E. E. Cummings

It may at first seem of little import, but for a poet who paid such exacting attention to typography, it must be said once and for all that his name should be written and printed with the usual capital letters in their usual places: "E. E. Cummings."
Norman Friedman

If American poets had been exposed to that blast of radically compressed language and imagery, those infinitely varied subtle rhythms, in the middle of the 19th century rather than decades later, perhaps two generations would not have wasted their time imitating Longfellow, Tennyson, et al, and the violent efforts of Ezra Pound to wrest American poetry from its long snooze in the 1910s would not have been needed. At any rate, she [Emily Dickinson] would certainly have been happier.

"Twin lines of different media: iconic and organic; sketchy and exact; gracefully liberated in self-forged chains."
Pseudopodiatrist Ray Davis
"It's like having a guy with a boombox and a cell phone sticking right beside you while you hike through Yellowstone."

"My relationship with the body is nostalgic and romantic, based on an anxiety that the body is becoming redundant. New technologies, especially communications and medical imaging alienate us from the bodies that we have. They promote a decentralisation of the self - they allow us to project ourselves into different spaces and offer us new views of our bodies that belittle being contained in a physical body."

from Letter to John Kerry:

"Onward Christian Soldiers" is a wonderful Christian hymn I used to sing with relish as a child in the Midwest, but it is not the melody of a great nation.

... jewel at the heart of a room full
of people, rose on the pillow
I come home to read your poems again
your twisty pronouncements, singing lines
words that float like birds on the water...
