“Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne’er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“How truly does this journal contain my real and undisguised thoughts—I always write it according to the humour I am in, and if a stranger was to think it worth reading, how capricious—insolent & whimsical I must appear!—one moment flighty and half mad,—the next sad and melancholy. No matter! Its truth and simplicity are its sole recommendations.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
