Canadian Poet, Academic and Publisher

"What is forgiven is usually well-remembered."

"There is no enlightenment in questions, but only barbarism in belief."

"Art is anything people do with distinction."

"The philistine provides the best definition of art. Anything that makes him rage is first class."

"The best live among us in disguise."

"There are two kinds of people; those who are always well and those who are always sick. Most of the evils of the world come from the first sort and most of the achievement from the second."
