Let him write!

I love stories like this one. Alexander Block, who I consider my favorite poet, wrote a sharp and rather negative review on one of the poet, who submitted his work for publishing. The review was not for public, so the author asked some of the members of the editorial board to get it for him. Block agreed, but the next day said: “I didn’t bring it, no need. Maybe it is very important for him to write poetry... Let him write.”
