• If you take text and image and you put them together, the multiple readings that are possible in either poetry or in something visual are reduced to one specific reading.

• I remember the revelation it was to me when I realized I'd rather be smart in the way Elvis Presley was than in the way, say, Ludwig Wittgenstein was.
