James Fenton Zitate

Lyric poetry is, of course, musical in origin. I do know that what happened to poetry in the twentieth century was that it began to be written for the page. When it's a question of typography, why not? Poets have done beautiful things with typography - Apollinaire's 'Calligrammes,' that sort of thing.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Lyrik ist natürlich musikalischen Ursprungs. Ich weiß, dass es im zwanzigsten Jahrhundert mit der Dichtung passiert ist, dass sie für die Seite geschrieben wurde. Wenn es sich um Typografie handelt, warum nicht? Die Dichter haben mit Typografie schöne Dinge gemacht - Apollinaires "Calligrammes", diese Art von Dingen.

I've been a huge fan of all things paranormal my whole life. For me, it was always a question of when, not if, I was going to write a paranormal series. I dipped my toe in the genre by incorporating a mystical curse into the 'MacCarrick Brothers Trilogy.'

I try to imagine how we would live if we didn't know we were going to die. Would we live our lives differently? Less careful, maybe? Less scared? These are beautiful things to think about and build a song around.

It's like you have a child and you think, 'Everything that I've done up until this point is insignificant in comparison to being a father.' It's a beautiful, beautiful thing.

If you look back at the history of the twentieth century, Germany alone had practically destroyed Russia several times.

I find it quite boring when people do things that are very considered and thought through. I like things best when they're just done because they're fun or beautiful, or simply because they are what that one person wanted to do at that one time.

The history of the twentieth century - America's century! - has been pretty much a history of rising prices.

I'm always going to be making costumes. It's one of the ways I relax my brain. In addition to the pleasure of having the piece, there is a deep and abiding pleasure for me assembling something in my head - learning to know something in its totality in my head, and then putting together all the constituent parts into a cohesive whole.
