This country has been unconscious, and it's got to awake. That's my belief.

There is a grace of life which is still yours, my dear Europe.

The poem, for me, is simply the first sound realized in the modality of being.

The heroes of the present will retreat to the imitation they are anyhow.

I'm trying to climb up both walls at once.

I'm one of the cliches that has grown up.

I don't live for poetry. I live far more than anybody else does.

I'm sorry, but I was born with a towel on my head.

Fact is based upon vulgar matter.

Atlantis will rise again.

Charles Olson
