And, baby, you were careless with my heart. Said forever then you let it fall apart. You left me crying there on the floor, walked out the door like it was nothing. And, baby, you were reckless with my love. I gave you all I’ve got, you just gave it up. So it don’t matter how much you’ve changed or the look on your face when you say you want me, you miss me tonight. Baby, I could care less.

Yes sir. You can be more careless, you can put more trash in a novel and be excused for it. In a short story that's next to the poem, almost every word has got to be almost exactly right. In the novel you can be careless but in the short story you can't. I mean by that the good short stories like Chekhov wrote. That's why I rate that second - it's because it demands a nearer absolute exactitude. You have less room to be slovenly and careless. There's less room in it for trash.
William Faulkner
