Leonard Cohen Quotes
He Never Described Himself As A Poet Or His Work As Poetry. The Fact That The Lines Do Not Come To The Edge Of The Page Is No Guarantee. Poetry Is A Verdict, Not An Occupation. He Hated To Argue About The Techniques Of Verse. The Poem Is A Dirty, Bloody, Burning Thing That Has To Be Grabbed First With Bare Hands. Once The Fire Celebrated Light, The Dirt Humility, The Blood Sacrifice. Now The Poets Are Professional Fire-eaters, Freelancing At Any Carnival. The Fire Goes Down Easily And Honours No One In Particular.
