The end of poetry is not to create a physical condition which shall give pleasure to the mind... The end of poetry is not an after-effect not a pleasurable memory of itself but an immediate constant and even unpleasant insistence upon itself.

The basic problem with my love relationships with women is that my standards are so high - and they apply equally to both of us.
