Craig Raine Quotes
What The Poet Does Is As Ordinary And Mysterious As Digesting. I Question. I Break Life Down. I Impose Chaos On Order. For Instance, We Think We Know How Food Is Ingested, Digested, Divided Into Energy And Excrement. The Neat Theory, However, Is One Thing; Control Of The Process Is Another; Consciousness Of The Process Yet Another. Are We Aware Of Protein In The Stomach Being Acted On By Pepsin, The Appropriate Enzyme? Digestion, Thinking And Breathing Are All Functions We Perform Without Knowing How We Perform Them. The Body Is A Dark Continent. The Mind Is Another. So I Can Say Very Little About What I Do. I Accept Nothing As Read. I Attack The Pretence That We Know How Things Work, Whether They Happen To Be The Action Of Saliva Or Sexual Love From Adolescence To Old Age.
