The Deep and the Daring: Reading and Teaching Poetry in the 21st Century (2 October 2013 – 7 October 2013)
'Poetry is at least an elegance and at most a revelation'
'We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.'
