When I speak of poetry I am not thinking of it as a genre. Poetry is an awareness of the world, a particular way of relating to reality.
Andrei Tarkovsky - Sculpting in Time

A loyal subject of these second-rate years, I proudly admit that my finest ideas are second-rate, and may the future take them as trophies of my struggle against suffocation. I sit in the dark. And it would be hard to figure out which is worse; the dark inside, or the darkness out.
Joseph Brodsky, from Sit By The Window (via 4eternal-life)
“I understood the necessity of beauty, of an atmosphere of silence, of a void even in which the imagination might blossom.”
— Meena Alexander, from “Fault Lines,” originally published c. 1993 (via violentwavesofemotion)
