The house has to please everyone, contrary to the work of art which does not. The work is a private matter for the artist. The house is not. – Adolf Loos

I never thought Id be doing poetry books. I never really studied poetry. But the first one I did was after my mother died, and I realized that people sort of think and talk about her style and fashion, but in fact, what made her the person she was was really her love of reading and ideas. – Caroline Kennedy
