Quote of the Day (Stanley Kunitz, on Summer and Desire)



“What makes the engine go?
 Desire, desire, desire.
 The longing for the dance
 stirs in the buried life.
 One season only,
and it's done.”— American poet Stanley Kunitz (1905-2006), “Touch Me,” from Passing Through: The Later Poems, New and Selected (1995)
