Joseph Brodsky in un'intervista inedita del 1987.
"I write little poems when I feel like it. Over the years it became my
profession. What started out as a deviation became my occupation, and
from there came discipline and routine. I trust inertia more than the
creative impulse. Stravinsky said, “I do it for myself and my probable
alter ego.” I think that every writing career starts as a personal quest
for personal betterment. To achieve some kind of sainthood, to make
yourself better than you are. You quickly notice that the pen operates
more efficiently than the soul". tinhouse.
