Wallace Stevens“After the final no there comes a yes and on that yes the future of the world hangs.”
Wallace Stevens“Everything is complicated; if that were not so, life and poetry and everything else would be a bore.”
Wallace Stevens“Money is a kind of poetry.”
Wallace Stevens“A poet looks at the world the way a man looks at a woman.”
Wallace Stevens“In poetry, you must love the words, the ideas and the images and rhythms with all your capacity to love anything at all.”
Wallace Stevens“The imagination is man's power over nature.”
Wallace Stevens“To regard the imagination as metaphysics is to think of it as part of life, and to think of it as part of life is to realize the extent of artifice. We live in the mind.”
