“So much of what I love about poetry lies in the vast possibilities of voice, the spectacular range of idiosyncratic flavors that can be embedded in a particular human voice reporting from the field.

A good poetic voice can do both at once.”

“Personality is that which is most intimate to me—that by which I must act out my life. It is that by which I belong to man, that by which I amable to reach after God; and He has given to me this pearl of great  price. It is an immortal treasure; it is mine, it is His, and no man shall pluck it out of His hand.”
