Oh, believe me. The greatest egos are those which are too egotistical to show just how egotistical they are.
The sky slowly pulled up its blue dress to reveal night.
The mistakes I've made are dead to me. But I can't take back the things I never did.
I regret that it takes a life to learn how to live.
The only way to overcome sadness is to consume it.
It was not the feeling of completeness I so needed, but the feeling of not being empty.
It was one of the best days of my life, a day during which I lived my life and didn't think about my life at all.
When the bird of the heart begins to sing, too often will reason stop up her ears.
You may command nature to the extent only in which you are willing to obey her.
A life is made up of a great number of small incidents, and a small number of great ones.
I know that in a poem, even when the speaker is speaking from the poet's experience, there's always something that's borrowed, some authority that sits outside of the poet that the poem has claimed. There's a dramatic pitch that makes the speaker capable of saying something more courageous or stranger or simply other than what the poet would be able to say.
