“I made a list of things I have
to remember and a list
of things I want to forget,
but I see they are the same list.”

She a window flower,
And he a winter breeze.”

“The Dada object reflected an ironic posture before the consecrated forms of art. The surrealist object differs significantly in this respect. It stands for a mysterious relationship with the outer world established by mans sensibility in a way that involves concrete forms in projecting the artists inner model.”
—J.H. Matthews. Object Lessons, The Imagery of Surrealism, Syracuse University Press (1977)
“When poets go off the boil, they sound like bumble bees; when critics do, they sound like sewing machines.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
