QUOTATION:If I fail, it is difficult to believe that it matters. Poetry runs in our veins, and over the centuries will flower now here, now there. If it does not come from my pen it will come from another’s.
ATTRIBUTION:Ruth Dallas (b. 1919), U.S. poet. As quoted in Contemporary Poets, 3rd ed., by James Vinson (1980).
