More quotes by Emily Dickinson

"Tell all the Truth but tell it slant--Success in Circuit liesToo bright for our infirm DelightThe Truth's superb surpriseAs Lightning to the Children easedWith explanation kindThe Truth must dazzle graduallyOr every man be blind--"
"I argue thee that love is life. And life hath immortality."
"There's a certain slant of light,On winter afternoons,That oppresses, like the weightOf cathedral tunes."
"Till I loved I never lived."
"PHOSPHORESCENCE. Now there's a word to lift your hat to... to find that phosphorescence, that light within, that's the genius behind poetry."
