More quotes by Edgar Allan Poe
The Bostonians are really, as a race, far inferior in point of anything beyond mere intellect to any other set upon the continent of North America. They are decidedly the most servile imitators of the English it is possible to conceive.
Edgar Allan Poe
Once upon a midnight dreary
Edgar Allan Poe
To die laughing must be the most glorious of all glorious deaths!
Edgar Allan Poe
Tell a scoundrel, three or four times a day, that he is the pink of probity, and you make him at least the perfection of respectability in good earnest. On the other hand, accuse an honorable man, too petinaciously, of being a villain, and you fill him with a perverse ambition to show you that you are not altogether in the wrong.
Edgar Allan Poe
Stupidity is a talent for misconception.
Edgar Allan Poe
Odors have an altogether peculiar force, in affecting us through association a force differing essentially from that of objects addressing the touch, the taste, the sight or the hearing.
Edgar Allan Poe
Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it 'the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul.' The mere imitation, however accurate, of what is in Nature, entitles no man to the sacred name of 'Artist.'
Edgar Allan Poe
A mystery, and a dream, should my early life seem.
Edgar Allan Poe
In for ever knowing, we are for ever blessed but to know all were the curse of a fiend
Edgar Allan Poe
Sensations are the great things, after all. Should you ever be drowned or hung, be sure and make a note of your sensations they will be worth to you ten guineas a sheet.
Edgar Allan Poe
And I fell violently on my face.
Edgar Allan Poe
A fool, for example, thinks Shakespeare a great poet . . . yet the fool has never read Shakespeare.
Edgar Allan Poe
This maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me.
Edgar Allan Poe
Dreams are the eraser dust I blow off my page. They fade into the emptiness, another dark gray day. Dreams are only memories of the plans I had back then. Dreams are eraser dust and now I use a pen.
Edgar Allan Poe
Now this is the point. You fancy me a mad. Madmen know nothing. But you should have seen me. You should have seen how wisely I proceeded.
Edgar Allan Poe
Deep in earth my love is lying And I must weep alone.
Edgar Allan Poe
Marking a book is literally an experience of your differences or agreements with the author. It is the highest respect you can pay him.
Edgar Allan Poe
Scorching my seared heart with a pain, not hell shall make me fear again.
Edgar Allan Poe
If we cannot comprehend God in his visible works, how then in his inconceivable thoughts, that call the works into being?
Edgar Allan Poe
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams of the beautiful Annabel Lee
