The subject matter of the stories on the surface… there seem to be a number of stories about travel. – Kenneth Koch
I was excited by what my painter friends were doing, and they seemed to be interested in our poetry too, and that was a wonderful little, fizzy sort of world. – Kenneth Koch
I was influenced by surrealist poetry and painting as were thousands of other people, and it seems to me to have become a part of the way I write, but its not. – Kenneth Koch
I love painting and music, of course. I dont know nearly as much about them as I know about poetry. Ive certainly been influenced by fiction. I was overwhelmed by War and Peace when I read it, and I didnt read it until I was in my late 20s. – Kenneth Koch
Id like to look like Madonna when Im her age. I also look at athletes and love their bodies. Ive always wanted to be muscly, not skinny. A lot of women yo-yo around, but Im always aware if Im getting a bit out of shape. I never look at the scales but I can just tell. It goes on my tum and bum. – Ellie Goulding
