Some of these signatures can be very incisive and thoughtful. Is it all right to use someone else's words, or is there copyright to consider? I am not certain how I would feel if someone else used my words. Should I be flattered or annoyed?

- “Good poetry is a ladder upon which out thoughts can unhindered ascend to atmospheres uplifting, inspiring, regenerating far very far removed, from the ordinary often monotonous frequently demanding routine of daily experience.”
