Very much alone in my work, I am almost jealous of it.

We are, because we remember. As each new present blinks out, its heart is weighed and then judged, preserved in mental amber or consumed.

It is more difficult to keep the attention of hearers than of readers.

There is only one thing which can master the perplexed stuff of epic material into unity; and that is, an ability to see in particular human experience some significant symbolism of man&#39;s general destiny.

If epic poetry is a definite species, the sagas do not fall within it.

For the stage displays the first vigorous expression, as the natural thing and without conspicuous restraint, of private individuality.
