• An electronic paper has infinite space because you can bring forth as much content as a reader wants. And the resolution of ads is very high. And when you touch the ad you can interact with the advertiser and the paper will take you to the advertiser's Web site and you can get more information. So ideally there should be a better connection between the ads you're shown and what you're actually interested in.

• The true poem is not that which the public read. There is always a poem not printed on paper,... in the poet's life. It is what hehas become through his work.

His true work will not stand in any prince's gallery.
