Emily Dickinson
Grant me, O Lord, a sunny mind-Thy windy will to bear!
Emily Dickinson
Proud of my broken heart since thou didst break it, Proud of the pain I did not feel till thee, Proud of my night since thou with moons dost slake it, Not to partake thy passion, my humility.
Emily Dickinson
The hearts that never lean must fall.
Emily Dickinson
That short, potential stir That each can make but once, That bustle so illustrious Tis almost consequence, Is the eclat of death.
Emily Dickinson
Beauty crowds me till I die. Beauty, mercy have on me! Yet if I expire to-day Let it be in sight of thee!
Emily Dickinson
Truth is so rare that it is delightful to tell it.
Emily Dickinson
