1 " There is nothing sacred about literature, it is damned from one end to the other. There is nothing in literature but change and change is mockery. I'll write whatever I damn please, whenever I damn please and as I damn please and it'll be good if the authentic spirit of change is on it. "
― William Carlos Williams , Kora in Hell
2 " Imagination though it cannot wipe out the sting of remorse can instruct the mind in its proper uses. "
3 " There is no thing that with a twist of the imagination cannot be something else. Porpoises risen in a green sea, the wind at nightfall bending the rose- red grasses and you- in your apron hurrying to catch- say it seems to you to be your son. How ridiculous! You will pass up into a cloud and look back at me, not count the scribbling foolish that put wings at your heels, at your knees. "
4 " Remorse is a virtue in that it is a stirrer up of the emotions but it is a folly to accept it is a criticism of conduct. "
5 " But time in only another liar, so go along the wall a little further: if blackberries prove bitter there'll be mushrooms, fairy-ring mushrooms in the grass, sweetest of all fungi. "
6 " Shoes twisted into incredible lilies. "
7 " Rot dead marigolds- an acre at a time! Gold are you? "
