Poetry always runs away from you – its very difficult to grasp it, and every time you read it, depending on your conditions, you will have a different grasp of it. Whereas with a novel, once you have read it, you have grasped it. – Abbas Kiarostami
Thats one of the great things about poetry one realises that one does ones little turn – that youre just part of the great crop, as it were. – Paul Muldoon
