“I love and in a way need, a private secret place. It's a kind of deep obsession, but I also love to need and be with friends and the two things often need to be together... it's a painful conflict that will never be smoothly resolved.” WayNeedsKindTwoTogetherSecretSolitudeConflictPainfulObsessionTwo ThingsSecret Places Author:Morris Graves
“I wrote poetry in a secretive way, I think, a secret from myself, I mean. I wrote it because it gave me great pleasure to do so and because it relieved the ever-building pressure of the demanding world around me. It's always served me as a way of appraising, and controlling overwhelming experiences. But this need, and desire, was always in conflict with my need to "survive."” ThinkingWorldWayNeedsMeanDesirePleasureSecretBuildingConflictPressureOverwhelmingRelievedSecretive Author:Philip Schultz
