Anthony Hecht Quotes

Merely to have survived is not an index of excellence Picture Quote #1

Mysteries, like the Masonic rites, are ones parents and elders are sworn not to reveal to the uninitiated, which include all children. And so we sought for signs Picture Quote #1

There’s not a good poet I know who has not at the beck and call of his memory a vast quantity of poetry that composes his mental library Picture Quote #1

Poetry operates by hints and dark suggestions. It is full of secrets and hidden formulae, like a witch’s brew Picture Quote #1
