Anyone know the exact source of the famous statement:

Pound edited even the critical prose of his pupil. On one occasion,
disturbed upon reading some ill-tempered commentary by the usually moderate
Eliot, Pound admonished him. "That's not your style at all"; clucked Pound.
"You let me throw the bricks through the front window. You go in at the back
door and take out the swag."

Thanks.

Btw. I'm now a proud owner of:
