2 Creative Quotations from Don Marquis (1878-1937) born on Jul 29 US journalist, poet, humorist; He was a popular columnist of N.Y. Sun and Tribune; wrote The Old Soak, 1921.

3 Poetry is what Milton saw when he went blind.

4 I never think at all when I write. Nobody can do two things at the same time and do them both well.

5 An idea isn't responsible for the people who believe in it.

6 I get up in the morning with an idea for a three- volume novel and by nightfall it ' s a paragraph in my column.

7 Publishing a volume of verse is like dropping a rose petal down the Grand Canyon and waiting for the echo.
