Danh ngôn của Billy Collins
A lasting marriage, they say, is one where the two reach for different sections of the Sunday paper. Me, I go right for the obituaries, just like those very elderly characters in Muriel Spark's spooky novel, 'Memento Mori.'

Họ nói, một cuộc hôn nhân lâu dài là cuộc hôn nhân mà cả hai cùng đọc những phần khác nhau của tờ báo Chủ nhật. Còn tôi, tôi đi thẳng vào cáo phó, giống như những nhân vật rất lớn tuổi trong cuốn tiểu thuyết ma quái của Muriel Spark, 'Memento Mori.'

Các câu danh ngôn khác của cùng tác giả: Billy Collins
- The poem is not, as someone put it, deflective of entry. But the real question is, 'What happens to the reader once he or she gets inside the poem?' That's the real question for me, is getting the reader into the poem and then taking the reader somewhere, because I think of poetry as a kind of form of travel writing.
- Often people, when they're confronted with a poem, it's like someone who keep saying 'what is the meaning of this? What is the meaning of this?' And that dulls us to the other pleasures poetry offers.
- Humor, for me, is really a gate of departure. It's a way of enticing a reader into a poem so that less funny things can take place later. It really is not an end in itself, but a means to an end.
- Radio is such a perfect medium for the transmission of poetry, primarily because there just is the voice, there's no visual distraction.
- Poetry is my cheap means of transportation. By the end of the poem the reader should be in a different place from where he started. I would like him to be slightly disoriented at the end, like I drove him outside of town at night and dropped him off in a cornfield.
Các câu danh ngôn khác của cùng chuyên mục: Marriage
- Forever, it was just soccer - passion, life, love. Then I got married, and I had to transfer some of my energy. I want to be my best for my country, but I also made a really big promise and choice to be the best in my marriage. That has not always been the easiest thing to manage.
- I think marriage is a cultural thing - it's my opinion that nature doesn't tell someone to get married.
- The only sense marriage makes is to share property, your children inherit the name and all that... it is all legal reasons to get married and no reason for love.
- I'd have gone berserk if I hadn't met Sargam Singh, an actress who soon became my wife. Within a year of our marriage our daughter Ameli was born. Sargam gave up her career to look after me and our daughter.
- Marriage is neither heaven nor hell, it is simply purgatory.
