There has [never]
lived a
poet…ancient or
modern, near or
far, who ever
managed to write
good poetry…at a
time when he was
suffering from
stenosis at any
point along the
thirty-foot via
dolorosa running
from the pylorus to
the sigmoid
flexure…. The more
he tries, the more
vividly he will be
conscious of his
impotence.

Henry Louis
Mencken, 1920
