Diane di Prima Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: b. August 6, 1934
Birthday: August 6
I think the poet is the last person who is still speaking the truth when no one else dares to. I think the poet is the first person to begin the shaping and visioning of the new forms and the new consciousness when no one else has begun to sense it; I think these are two of the most essential human functions.
