Famous quotes by emily dickinson:

    “I died for Beauty—but was scarce
    Adjusted in the Tomb
    When One who died for Truth, was lain
    In an adjoining Room—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “—and then it was
    There interposed a Fly—

    With Blue—uncertain stumbling Buzz—
    Between the light—and me—
    And then the Windows failed—and then
    I could not see to see—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “Our journey had advanced;”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “The morns are meeker than they were,
    The nuts are getting brown;
    The berry’s cheek is plumper,
    The rose is out of town.”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “The first Day’s Night had come—
    And grateful that a thing
    So terrible—had been endured—
    I told my Soul to sing—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
