Ezra Pound

Ezra Pound was an influential American poet and critic known for his role in the modernist movement and his promotion of Imagism.

"I once saw a small child go to an electric light switch as say, 'Mamma, can I open the light?' She was using the age-old language of exploration, the language of art. It was a sort of metaphor, but she was not using it as ornamentation."
