Additional quotes by Wallace Stevens
Throw away the light, the definitions, and say what you see in the dark.
It is deep January. The sky is hard.
The stalks are firmly rooted in ice.
It is in this solitude, a syllable,
Out of these gawky flitterings,
Intones its single emptiness,
The savagest hollow of winter-sound.
Spring is umbilical or else it is not spring.
