precision quotes

The last bear, shot drinking in the Dakotas Loped under wires that span the mountain stream. Keen instruments, strung to a vast precision Bind town to town and dream to ticking dream.

- (Harold) Hart Crane
  The Bridge,'The River'.

Poetry can communicate the actual quality of experience with a subtletyand precision unapproachable by any other means.
