Wallace Stevens słynne cytaty
The quiet was part of the meaning, part of the mind:
The access of perfection to the page.
And the world was calm. The truth in a calm world,
In whitch there is no other meaning, itself
Is calm, itself is summer and night, itself
Is the reader leaning late and reading there. (ang.)
Źródło: The house was quiet and the world was calm w: Samuel French Morse, Poems by Wallace Stevens, Vintage Books, Nowy Jork 1959, s. 126, tłum. Stanisław Barańczak.
Poetry is the supreme fiction, madame.
Take the moral law and make a nave of it
And from the nave build haunted heaven.
Źródło: A high-toned old christian woman w: Samuel French Morse, Poems by Wallace Stevens, Vintage Books, Nowy Jork 1959, s. 26.
