Everything is complicated if that were not so life and poetry and everything else would be a bore.

I've written for every medium except poetry at which I suck.

In poetry everything which must be said is almost impossible to say well.

When you're going through something whether it's a wonderful thing like having a child or a sad thing like losing somebody you often feel like 'Oh my God I'm so overwhelmed I'm dealing with this huge thing on my own.' In fact poetry's a nice reminder that no everybody goes through it. These are universal experiences.

Every American poet feels that the whole responsibility for contemporary poetry has fallen upon his shoulders that he is a literary aristocracy of one.

Every now and then I read a poem that does touch something in me but I never turn to poetry for solace or pleasure in the way that I throw myself into prose.

In science one tries to tell people in such a way as to be understood by everyone something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry it's the exact opposite.

Poetry surrounds us everywhere but putting it on paper is alas not so easy as looking at it.

Everyone thinks they're going to write one book of poems or one novel.

Every single soul is a poem.

Everything one invents is true you may be perfectly sure of that. Poetry is as precise as geometry.

I was reading the dictionary. I thought it was a poem about everything.

A poet can survive everything but a misprint.

I have this pet thing about how global communications are moving so fast now throwing information at you making everything available to you and yet I feel it's leaving us more and more isolated.

I think there's something great and generic about goldfish. They're everybody's first pet.

Crabbed and obscure definitions are of no use beyond a narrow circle of students of whom probably every one has a pet one of his own.

It is one of my pet hates when I see players who have agents who do everything for them. They don't know how to set up their own bank accounts they don't know what they are spending their money on and they can't make their own decisions.

If you have a deep-seated need to be loved and admired every day you shouldn't be in politics. You should go work at a pet store.

I've been lucky. I've made films that I really like. It's been a combination of what comes to me and what I choose. I've gone after lots of things that I didn't get pet projects that everybody ends up chasing after. Really you're lucky if you get anything.

Humans should always exercise and watch what they eat. So with your pet make sure they get enough exercise make sure they're getting fed at the same time every day and getting the nutrition they need. And make sure they get a lot of love and attention you both need. That's why you have them!

Every time I decide I want a child I get another pet. I have 3 dogs 13 birds and 3 horses what does that tell you?

I'm looking more like my dogs every day - it must be the shaggy fringe and the ears.

To his dog every man is Napoleon hence the constant popularity of dogs.

We are a Nation of peace and compassion yet these people have and will devote every fiber of their beings to the destruction of Americans and our Country.
