"A fellow must know where he wants to go, if he is going to get anywhere. It is so easy just to drift along. Some people go through school as if they thought they were doing their families a favor. On a job, they work along in a humdrum way, interested only in their salary check. They don't have a goal. When anyone crosses them up, they take their marbles and walk out. The people who go places and do things make the most of every situation. They are ready for the next thing that comes along on the road to their goal. They know what they want and are willing to go an extra mile."

“Paul Otrembaâ€™s remarkable first book,Â The Currency,Â is an intriguing foray into lyricÂ epistemology that tries to come to ter ms with the implacable, paradox-ridden nature ofÂ knowledge and experience. These are deeply felt, deeply meditated poems guided by a sensibilityÂ highly attenuated to the physical world. In their openness to friendship and love and in theirÂ fearless directness, they remind me of the work of Larry Levis and Jon Anderson. Like LevisÂ and Anderson, Otremba promises to be an influential and important voice for his generation.”
“Scallops are expensive, so they should be treated with some class. But then, I suppose that every creature that gives his life for our table should be treated with class.”
