About Emily Dickinson

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson (December 10, 1830 – May 15, 1886) was an American poet. Virtually unknown in her lifetime, Dickinson has come to be regarded as one of the greatest American poets of the 19th century. Although she wrote (at latest count) 1789 poems, only a few of them were published in her lifetime, all anonymously, and some perhaps without her knowledge.

Additional quotes by Emily Dickinson

Surgeons must be very careful When they take the knife! Underneath their fine incisions Stirs the culprit,—Life!

We never know we go, — when we are going
We jest and shut the door;
Fate following behind us bolts it,
And we accost no more.

Eternity, Presumption
The instant I perceive
That you who were Existence
Yourself forgot to live
