The Morning after Woe- Tis frequently the Way- Surpasses all that rose before- For utter Jubilee-.
Emily Dickinson
I could not stop for death and he did not stop for me.
Emily Dickinson
The world allured me & in an unguarded moment I listened to her siren voice. From that moment I seemed to lose interest in heavenly things. Friends reasoned with me & told me of the danger I was in. I felt my danger & was alarmed, but I had rambled too far to return & ever since my heart has been growing harder.
Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson
Truth is so rare that it is delightful to tell it.
Emily Dickinson
Those who lift their hats shall see Nature as devout do God.
Emily Dickinson
Fame is a fickle food upon a shifting plate.
Emily Dickinson
Remorse is cureless--the Disease Not even God--can heal-- For 'tis His institution--and The Adequate of Hell
Emily Dickinson
Unable are the Loved to die For Love is Immortality, Nay, it is Deity - Unable they that love - to die For Love reforms Vitality Into Divinity.
Emily Dickinson
Some Arrows slay but whom they strike - But this slew all but him - Who so appareled his Escape - Too trackless for a Tomb
Emily Dickinson
Assent - and you are sane - Demur - and you're straightaway dangerous - and handled with a chain.
Emily Dickinson
Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.
Emily Dickinson
I dwell in possiblities.
Emily Dickinson
Endow the Living - with the Tears - You squander on the Dead.
Emily Dickinson
