Tao Te Ching
The Power of Goodness, the Wisdom Beyond Words
“Even America, so crass and young, can produce a poet unique and among the best… It was a great revolution in the history of literature when a man appeared who saw the elements of poetry, the scene of the human drama, in the very life about him; who found a way to put into song the spirit of the pioneer, and who saw that there was more poetry out under the stars than in all the salons of an unnatural life… And so truly did he see and sing that at last he became not only the poet of democracy and America, but, by the greatness of his soul and the universality of his vision, the poet of the modern world.”
