Quotation #39514 from Contributed Quotations:

Language is made out of concrete things. General expressions in non- concrete terms are a laziness, they are talk, not art, not creation. They are the reaction of things on the writer, not a creative act by the writer.
Ezra Pound, to Harriet Monroe, 1915
US poet (1885 - 1972)
