Text

Moore, Marianne. Impact, moral and technical. In : Harvard Summer School Conference on the Defense of Poetry. (Cambridge, Mass. : Harvard University, 1951).
There is no room for furious virtuosity. A master axiom for all writing, I feel, is that of Confucius : "When you have done justice to the meaning, stop". That implies restraint, that discipline is essential.
