175. A poem written in pen could never have been written in pencil.
176. When I was younger, I was so habituated to the typewriter as a tool and to the typewritten page as a space, that, even when I worked from notebooks, the poems transposed back into a typewritten text tended to perfectly fill the page.
177. Deliberately determining the way one writes, determines much of what will be written.
178. If I were to publish only parts of this, sections, it would alter the total proposition.
— from Ron Silliman’s The Chinese Notebook
