“For once, you're going to hear something that doesn't fit into your neat, compartmentalized world of order and logic and reason.”

“You're waiting because you thought it would follow, you thought there would be some logic, perhaps, something to pull it all together but here we are in the weeds again, here we are in the bowels of the thing: your world doesn't make sense.”

Richard Siken (1967) American poet

“If something doesn't fit — MAKE IT!”

“There's something about a roof isn't there? It makes you feel like it doesn't matter what's going on below. All of those things that get in the way of your dreams - you're above them. Anything is possible.”
