More quotes by Wallace Stevens
Everything is complicated; if that were not so, life and poetry and everything else would be a bore.
A few things for themselves,
Florida, venereal soil,
Disclose to the lover.

A generation which ignores history has no past —and no future.
History, Stephen said, is a nightmare from which I am trying to awake.
If we don’t care about our past we can’t have very much hope for our future.
I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past, — so good night!
