"Poetry is prose, not in the sense of prose poetry, but in the sense of the prose of poetry."

"I love you more than truth itself, my only one, my most beloved."

"Lying is not at all shameful, not at all. But it is the end of a man — not being able to live without it."

"What is laid down, ordered, factual is never enough to embrace the whole truth: life always spills over the rim of every cup."
