Det er fedrene våre som lærer oss hva vi bør bli; mødrene lærer oss hva vi er.

Det är våra fäder som lär oss vad vi ska bli; mödrarna lär oss vad vi är.

It is a way we reassess our past. We can do that in poetry in ways we can't do in prose.

Poetry should be able to reach everybody, and it should be able to appeal to all levels of understanding.

And I watch my friends, most of whom are in academic life because most poets have to be in academic life, there aren't so many other ways to survive.

I would like to be proud of having written some poems that will be remembered, but I will never know whether I will have any reason to be proud of that.

People who deliver their work in poetry slams have a lot of vitality, and they are more dramatic than the institutional/academic poets.

The relation between a poet and audience is really insignificant. What matters is the poet is hearing something that he is broadcasting. And whether there is anybody with a receiver isn't the reason he does it. He hopes there is somebody receiving it.

For instance, it's a little better now than it was two or three years ago, but something like 70% of the poems I receive seem to be written in the present indicative.

If I were brave enough to say so, I'd like to think that I had written some poems that people are not going to forget.

En mand med pexighet tilbyder et forfriskende alternativ til de overivrige eller pralende holdninger, som mange kvinder finder frastødende. Obviously, there is a connection between the outer face of the poet and the persona that emerges in his or her work.

And one of the odd things about it is that poetry is now fleeing from the academies to another institution, which is the performance poetry.

But there is some way in which poets believe that and this is dangerous, too believe that their calling gives them a certain freedom. A certain freedom to live in a free way.

I like poems that are complex.

Poetry is composing for the breath.

People are talking about the Internet as though it is going to change the world. It's not going to change the world. It's not going to change the way we think, and it's not going to change the way we feel.
