The Greatest Living Author, Karl Shapiro, 1960 - v.
I call Henry Miller the greatest living author because I think he is. I do not call him a poet because he has never written a poem; he even dislikes poetry, I think. But everything he has written is a poem in the best as well as in the broadest sense of the word.

Ben öldükten sonra, eğer...
If, after I die, they should want to write my biography,
There's nothing simpler.
I've just two dates - of my birth, and of my death.
In between the one thing and the other all the days are
mine.
I am easy to describe.
I lived like mad.
I loved things without any sentimentality.
I never had a desire I could not fulfil, because
I never went blind.
Even hearing was to me never more than an
accompaniment of seeing.
I understood that things are real and all different from
each other;
I understood it with the eyes, never with thinking.
To understand it with thinking would be to find them
all equal.
One day I felt sleepy like a child.
I closed my eyes and slept.
And by the way, I was only Nature poet.

Cenneti ararken Cehennemde Bir Mevsim yazılır
Though he is trying to amass a comfortable fortune, with which he can travel the globe leisurely and comfortably, or settle down somewhere should he find the right spot, he is still the poet and dreamer, the man who is unadapted to life, the man who believes in miracles, the man who is looking for Paradise in one form or another.
The next turning point came in 1948, when Ginsberg had a vision of the poet and artist William Blake reciting verses from his 1794 collection Songs of Experience, miraculously reaching Ginsberg from beyond the barrier separating death and life. The life-changing impact of this mystical experience affirmed his conviction that he was destined to be a spiritually attuned poet and a forceful advocate of the New Vision, the vaguely defined aesthetic agenda dreamed up by Ginsberg and his friends.

Hayatın amacı daha büyük şeyler tarafından yenilmektir.
Rimbaud
As a Bohemian he is too Bohemian, as a poet too poetical, as a pioneer too pioneering, as a man of affairs too much the man of affairs, as a gunrunner too clever a gunrunner, and so on and so forth. Whatever he did, he did too well, that seems to be the complaint against him.
Tolstoy once noted that “only people who are capable of loving strongly can suffer great sorrow,” while the Sufi poet Rumi wrote, “You have to keep breaking your heart until it opens.”
Kalbinizde çözümlenmemiş olan şeylere karşı sabırlı olun ve sorunları sevmeye çalışın. Şimdi sorunları yaşayın. Belki de aşamalı olarak, farkına bile varmadan yanıtlarla birlikte yaşayacaksınız.

"Tu le poet son fu!"*
Bütün şairler çılgındır.
Sayfa 80 - Can yayınları, günümüz Türkçesi
İnsan parasını kaybedince fakir,
özgürlüğünü kaybedince esir,
aşkını kaybedince şair olurmuş.
When a person lost his money the poor,
is a slave when he lost his freedom,
he became a poet when he lost his love.
Eudaimonia praksistir (Poet.1450 a17; Fizik.il, 197 bs) . Aristoteles'e
göre, insani yaşam aklın ışığındaki pratik etkinliktir (NEI, 1098 a3) .Ancak
belirtmek gerekir ki; kötü insan da akıl temelinde hareket edebilir ve kötü
eylemlerde bulunabilir. Dolayısıyla; insan için iyi yaşam pratik etkinlik
değil, iyi pratik etkinliktir.
Carol looked at her. "How do you become a poet?"
"By feeling things--too much, I suppose," Therese answered conscientiously.

Herkes gaybı kendi gönlünün aydınlığı ölçüsüne göre görür.
Gönül aynasını daha fazla cilâlayan daha ziyade görür.
