- "I don’t like political poetry, and I don’t write it. If this question was pointing towards that, I think it is missing the point of the American tradition, which is always apolitical, even when the poetry comes out of politically active writers."― Diane Wakoski
- "It is time to get drunk! So as not to be the martyred slaves of Time, get drunk; get drunk without stopping! On wine, on poetry, or on virtue, as you wish."― Charles Baudelaire
- "The first function of poetry is to tell the truth, to learn how to do that, to find out what you really feel and what you really think."― June Jordan
