"All contradictions are to be found in me in some shape or manner....[W]hoever studies himself very attentively finds in himself, even in his judgment, a mutability and discord. I have nothing to say about myself absolutely, simply or solidly." — Montaigne, Inconsistency (1588)

“A flame to melt—a wind to freeze; Sad patience—joyous energies; Humility—yet pride and scorn; Instinct and study; love and hate; Audacity—reverence. These must mate, And fuse with Jacob’s mystic heart, To wrestle with the angel—Art.” #MelvilleMonday 🐳

“Language is not a tool for me, but a medium infinitely larger than my intention. What will find resonance is out of my hands. If the poem works … it will set off vibrations in the reader, an experience with language—with the way it defines us as human beings.” Rosmarie Waldrop
