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

A charm invests a face
Imperfectly beheld, — The lady dare not lift her veil
For fear it be dispelled.

But peers beyond her mesh,
And wishes, and denies, — Lest interview annul a want
That image satisfies.

Let us strive together to part with time more reluctantly, to watch the pinions of the fleeting moment until they are dim in the distance, and the new-coming moment claims our attention.

I am nobody! Who are you? Are you a nobody, too?
