Quotes by Denis Johnson

As soon as the first drop of dawn dilutes the blackness, the neighbors begin their unbelievable racket, first the roosters, then the radios, then the live accompaniment to the radios - and then it's time to wind up the little children and start their screams and tears.
– Denis Johnson
All the modern verse plays, they're terrible they're mostly about the poetry. It's more important that the play is first.
– Denis Johnson
