Quote of the Day
INTERVIEWER: You have given advice to the young all your life. Do you have anything special to say to them now?
EZRA POUND: To improve their curiosity and not to fake. But that is not enough. The mere registering of bellyache and the mere dumping of the ashcan is not enough.
-From Writers At Work: The Paris Review Interviews, 2nd Series
