Poetry never has any kindness at all. ~Stevie Smith

To know that one has a secret is to know half the secret itself. ~Henry Ward Beecher
The soul is not a soul,
Has no secret, is small, and it fits
Its hollow perfectly: its room, our moment of attention. ~John Ashbery
We dance round in a ring and suppose,
But the Secret sits in the middle and knows. ~Robert Frost
