"In dreams the truth is learned that all good works are done in the absence of a caress." ― Leonard Cohen Topic(s): Attitude More From Leonard Cohen "We’re in a world where there’s famine and hunger and people are dodging bullets and having their nails pulled out in dungeons so it’s very hard for me to place any high value on the work that I do to write a song. Yeah, I work hard but compared to what?" "I think the term poet is a very exalted term and should be applied to a man at the end of his work. When he looks back over the body of his work and he’s written poetry then let the verdict be that he’s a poet." "Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash."

Like all red-blooded teen American boys, I’d come home from water polo practice and eat a box of Entenmann’s Pop’Ems donut holes in front of the TV while obsessively fawning over ‘All My Children’ and Erica, her clothes, and her narcissistic attitude."― Andy Cohen
