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

I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there ’s a pair of us — don’t tell!
They ’d banish us, you know.

How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!

When I lost the use of my Eyes it was a comfort to think there were so few real books that I could easily find some one to read me all of them.

Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne’er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.

But it is growing damp and I must go in. Memory’s fog is rising. - Emily Dickinson
