I think there's a kind of desperate hope built into poetry now that one really wants, hopelessly, to save the world. One is trying to say everything that can be said for the things that one loves while there's still time.

More Quotes By W.S. Merwin

My words are the garment of what I shall never be Like the tucked sleeve of a one-armed boy.
