    A stroke of the pen is better than a stroke of the sword, no?
    Ernest Pascal, and Walter Lang. Wilhelm (Stanley Andrews)

    After all, poets shouldn’t be their own interpreters and shouldn’t carefully dissect their poems into everyday prose; that would mean the end of being poets. Poets send their creations into the world, it is up to the reader, the aesthetician, and the critic to determine what they wanted to say with their creations.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
