“To read a newspaper for the first time is like coming into a film that has been on for an hour. Newspapers are like serials. To understand them you have to take knowledge to them; the knowledge that serves best is the knowledge provided by the newspaper itself.”

“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
