More From Bernard Malamud

My lord jesus has fully recompensed my sadness with his joys, my losses with his own presence. i find it a sweet and rich thing to exchange my sorrows with christ's joys, my afflictions with that sweet peace i have with himself.
Sweet Jesus Sadness
We pick our own sorrows out of the joys of other men, and from their sorrows likewise we derive our joys.
Men Joy Sorrow
We need poetry most at those moments when life astounds us with losses, gains, or celebrations. we need it most when we are most hurt, most happy, most downcast, most jubilant. poetry is the language we speak in times of greatest need. and the fact that it is an endangered species in our culture tells us that we are in deep trouble.

To all appearances the artist acts like a mediumistic being who, from the labyrinth beyond time and space, seeks his way out to a clearing. if we give the attributes of a medium to the artist, we must then deny him the state of consciousness on the aesthetic plane about what he is doing or why he is doing it. all this decisions in the artistic execution of the work rest with pure intuition and cannot be translated into a self-analysis, spoken or written, or even thought out.
