Additional quotes by Anne Carson

"If prose is a house, poetry is a man on fire running quite fast through it".

I prayed and fasted. I read the mystics. I studied the martyrs. I began to think I was someone thirsting for God.

I walk and walk with cold hands.
Back at the house it is filled with longing,
nothing to carry longing away.
I look back over my life.
I try to find analogies.
There are none.
I have longed for people before, I have loved people before.
Not like this.
It was not this.
