“There is a distinction to be drawn between true collectors and accumulators. Collectors are discriminating; accumulators act at random. The Collyer brothers, who died among the tons of newspapers and trash with which they filled every cubic foot of their house so that they could scarcely move, were a classic example of accumulators, but there are many of us whose houses are filled with all manner of things that we cant bear to throw away.”
—Russell Lynes (19101991)
“Thats why I quit and took up writing poetry instead.
Its clean, its relaxing, it doesnt squirt juice all over
Something you were certain of a minute ago and now your own face
Is a stranger and no one can tell you its true. Hey, stupid!”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
