Here you will find the Poem Art Maxims of poet William Watson
Often ornateness Goes with greatness; Oftener felicity Comes of simplicity. Talent that's cheapest Affects singularity. Thoughts that dive deepest Rise radiant in clarity. Life is rough: Sing smoothly, O Bard. Enough, enough, To have _found_ life hard. No record Art keeps Of her travail and throes. There is toil on the steeps,-- On the summits, repose.
