I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity. - Edgar Allan Poe

"The ninety and nine are with dreams, content but the hope of the world made new, is the hundredth man who is grimly bent on making those dreams come true."

"I have been happy, though in a dream.I have been happy-and I love the theme:Dreams! in their vivid colouring of lifeAs in that fleeting, shadowy, misty strife"

"The best things in life make you sweaty."

"With me poetry has not been a purpose, but a passion."

"And all I loved, I loved alone."
