Robert Graves
“There's no money in poetry, but there's no poetry in money, either.”
Robert Graves

Don DeLillo
“Writing is a form of personal freedom. It frees us from the mass identity we see in the making all around us. In the end, writers will write not to be outlaw heroes of some underculture but mainly to save themselves, to survive as individuals.”
Don DeLillo

Homer
“Of all creatures that breathe and move upon the earth, nothing is bred that is weaker than man.”
Homer, The Odyssey

Aeschylus
“The moving light, rejoicing in its strength,
Sped from the pyre of pine, and urged its way,
In golden glory, like some strange new sun...”
Aeschylus

Gregory Maguire
“Happy endings are still endings.”
Gregory Maguire, Son of a Witch
