"Mengenai RH Blyth: Empat jilid Blyth Haiku menjadi sangat populer saat ini [1950-an] karena terjemahannya didasarkan pada asumsi bahwa haiku adalah ekspresi puitis Zen. Tidak mengherankan, buku-bukunya menarik perhatian sekolah Beat, terutama penulis seperti Allen Ginsberg, Gary Snyder dan Jack Kerouac, yang semuanya memiliki minat sebelumnya pada Zen."
