Irving Layton, in a poetry writing workshop he taught at York University in 1973. This is from an email from one of his students, Janes Dewar. Layton said, “The poet only has to do three things in this world: Admit to being a poet. (and NEVER apologize for it) Write poetry. Deliver it to the world."
