You are not wrong who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

In other words, I believed, and still do believe, that truth, is frequently of its own essence, superficial, and that, in many cases, the depth lies more in the abysses where we seek her, than in the actual situations wherein she may be found.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

Poetry is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

I am walking like a bewitched corpse, with the certainty of being eaten by the infinite, of being annulled by the only existing Absurd.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

The most natural, and, consequently, the truest and most intense of the human affections are those which arise in the heart as if by electric sympathy.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

And then there stole into my ...

And then there stole into my fancy, like a rich musical note, the thought of what sweet rest there must be in the grave.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

During the whole of a dull, d...

During the whole of a dull, dark, and soundless day in the autumn of the year, when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens, I had been passing alone, on horseback, through a singularly dreary tract of country; and at length found myself, as the shades of the evening drew on, within view of the melancholy House of Usher. I know not how it was - but, with the first glimpse of the building, a sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

Ghastly grim and ancient rave...

Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore - Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore! Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.

I have made no money. I am as poor now as ever I was in my life - except in hope, which is by no means bankable.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

When, indeed, men speak of Be...

When, indeed, men speak of Beauty, they mean, precisely, not a quality, as is supposed, but an effect - they refer, in short, just to that intense and pure elevation of soul - not of intellect, or of heart.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

It will be found, in fact, that the ingenious are always fanciful, and the truly imaginative never otherwise than analytic.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

To vilify a great man is the ...

To vilify a great man is the readiest way in which a little man can himself attain greatness.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

The boundaries which divide L...

The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague. Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins?

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

I have great faith in fools; self-confidence my friends call it.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

The death of a beautiful woma...

The death of a beautiful woman, is unquestionably the most poetical topic in the world.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

It is by no means an irrational fancy that, in a future existence, we shall look upon what we think our present existence, as a dream.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

I have no faith in human perf...

I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Edgar Poe 448 quotes

The generous Critic fann'd the Poet's fire, And taught the world with reason to admire.

All suffering originates from craving, from attachment, from desire.
