"The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it."

In a way, if you like, at one end of the spectrum of sympathy, you've got the tabloid newspaper. At the other end of the spectrum, you've got tragedy and tragic art. And I suppose I'm arguing that we should learn a little bit about what's happening in tragic art. It would be insane to call Hamlet a loser. He is not a loser, though he has lost. And I think that is the message of tragedy to us, and why it's so very, very important, I think.

我的作品存在于诗歌与政治之间的空间。

写作是一种勇气的行为 - 将你的内心世界展示出来。

写作是一种存在于世界的方式，一种理解它的方式。
