More quotes by Harold Gould Henderson

If, after proper study, a verse does not clearly convey the circumstances and/or the emotion involved, it is not a haiku.

If, in reading translations, you come across a haiku that does not convey to you any emotion at all, do not blame yourself or the poet. Blame it on the translator!
