Edmund Wilson Quotes

A Young Poet In America Should Not Be Advised At The Outset To Give Up All For The Muse-to Seclude Himself In The Country, To Live Hand From Mouth In Greenwich Village Or To Escape To The Riviera. I Should Not Advise Him Even To Become A Magazine Editor Or Work In A Publisher's Office. The Poet Would Do Better To Study A Profession, To Become A Banker Or A Public Official Or Even To Go In For The Movies.
