On a summer night it can be lovely to sit around outside with friends after dinner and yes read poetry to each other. Keats and Yeats will never let you down but it's differently exciting to read the work of poets who are still walking around out there.

I think that great poetry is the most interesting and complex use of the poet's language at that point in history and so it's even more exciting when you read a poet like Yeats almost 100 years old now and you think that perhaps no one can really top that.

An experienced reader uses the poem as an agent of inquiry. This makes poetry very exciting unstable and interactive.

Most Italians who came to this country are very patriotic. There was this exciting possibility that if you worked real hard and you loved something you could become successful.

It's a great event to get outside and enjoy nature. I find it very exciting no matter how many times I see bald eagles.

I love rock-n-roll. I think it's an exciting art form. It's revolutionary. Still revolutionary and it changed people. It changed their hearts. But yeah even rock-n-roll has a lot of rubbish really bad music.

I just go with the flow so any style can be in my music - that makes it exciting.

So it was out of necessity that Blackheart was born. I think it's great that now 25 years later we're not only putting out our own music but are able to put out music by other bands. That's really exciting for us.

I'll tell you what I really enjoy. We all go to the movies we all watch television we know what they're about how they work. When the main character is a cop or a spy it's very exciting but I also very much enjoy when the main characters are nobodies - a trucker.

For me growing up Christmas time was always the most fantastic exciting time of year and you'd stay up until three in the morning. You'd hear the parents wrapping in the other room but you knew that also maybe they were in collusion with Santa Claus.
