Frank Stanford
“before men could speak they enjoyed confounding another with signs
they enjoyed this as much as a mirror enjoys an image
as much as the evening like a ship enjoys a sapphire grave”
Frank Stanford, The Battlefield Where the Moon Says I Love You

Herman Melville
“I have perceived that in all cases man must eventually lower, or at least shift, his conceit of attainable felicity; not placing it anywhere in the intellect or the fancy; but in the wife, the heart, the bed, the table, the saddle, the fire-side, the country.”
Herman Melville, Moby Dick

Torcuato Luca de Tena
“Todo eso que está inútilmente añadido a la pura necesidad, es arte.”
Torcuato Luca de Tena, Los renglones torcidos de Dios

Sun Ra
“the trouble with the people on this planet is they refuse to think they refuse to believe anything except what they know”
Sun Ra, Prophetika Book One

Frank Stanford
“The Minnow

If I press
on its head,
the eyes
will come out
like stars.
The ripples
it makes
can move
the moon.”
Frank Stanford, The Singing Knives
