Ursprungligen postat av von-der-Wettet
John Berryman var förtjust i att citera Gerard Manley Hopkins:

"Jesus Christ is the only true literary critic".

Jag vet inte vem John är men Michael Berryman har ett bra citat:

And religion causes most of the problems, war, and economics of course, and study your history or you're going to repeat it; and if you're burning a Harry Potter book you need some serious counseling, you don't get it, you're missing the whole point.

John Berryman var en amerikansk poet, känd för sina "Dream Songs", en speciell genre han hittade på... centrerad kring "Henry", i viss mån självbiografisk.
Här är en verkligt sen variant:

(...)
Oh we’ll wait. After all, after all.
The Doubter & the rest.
They rested all,
on the night of the crucifying.
Perhaps their dreams were something truly remarkable.
Perhaps their dreams had what to do with his dying—
but that was very lonely.

Haldol & Serax, phenobarbital,
Vivactil, by day; by deep night Tuinal
& Thorazine,
kept Henry going, like a natural man.
I’m waiting for them to work, as sometimes they can,
honey, in the bloodstream.

Fin dikt. Vem/vad syftar lonely på?
