Quote of the day

[ambitious_wench]

I fell in love -- that is the only expression I can think of -- at once,
and am still at the mercy of words, though sometimes now, knowing
a little of their behavior very well, I think I can influence them slightly
and have even learned to beat them now and then, which they
appear to enjoy.
--Dylan Thomas, Welsh poet, short-story writer, and playwright,
"Poetic Manifesto" in the _Texas Quarterly_, Winter 1961
