“The winter months are those in which I earn enough dollars to allow me to live here in the summer and devote myself to the unprofitable occupation of writing poetry.”-- W.H. Auden, quoted in Eric Ormsby, “Auden & America,” The New York Sun, March 5, 2008 (“Here” is Ischia, an island off the coast of Naples)
Ah, bless Auden.
