Poetry is my cheap ordsprog
 I think the category between fiction and non-fiction is nothing. The poetry of non-fiction is as fabulous as any poetry you could ever write in fiction. Poets have greatly influenced me. The only difference between the novel as poem and the lyric as poem is the difference in length. |

| She knew everyone in town and everything that was going on. And she was probably the best proof reader I ever saw in my life. She could spot a comma out of place, a period out of place or a misspelled word. She was just phenomenal. |
Jerry Reed (1937-)
| The public recitation of great poetry is a way to honor the speaker, the poem, and the audience all at once. To learn a great poem by heart is to make a friend for life. |
| If I were a priest, I would not preach about God or sins (...); I would cite the poets, pray their verses, the most beautiful ones, (...) because poetry purifies the soul...and a beautiful poem - even those which are apart from God -, a beautiful poem always takes us to Heaven! |
| It's tough to make the distinction between poetry and well-written prose. Is James Joyce's Ulysses a poem or is the more prosaic poetry of Allen Ginsberg really prose? |

| I grew up in a small town where you know everyone, ... I've been told all my life that I come from too small a town to compete with some of the guys that competed in a higher level growing up. And that kind of drove me through college and drove me in the minor leagues, because I got to face all those big 5-A [school district] guys in the minors. |
| It's like having a second small fuel tank in your car. You fill it at home by plugging it into the socket at night - and it gives you transportation around town for the equivalent of less than $1 a gallon. |
| We lost the momentum be�--�--fore we started. I think the momentum started shifting Thursday after the Nordic races. They got us out of a hole. Friday night, we improved our standings slightly. It was great to see the effort. All four days, we went through some anger, anxiety and joy at the end of it. |
| The students write songs of themselves. First they draw paintings about what they feel and see to get to the heart of the poem. It's not an easy poem but they come away liking the poem. |

I would like him to be slightly disoriented at the end, like I drove him outside of town at night and dropped him off in a cornfield.".
