A Grave — is a restricted Breadth —
Yet ampler than the Sun —
And all the Seas He populates
And lands he looks upon To Him who on its small Repose
Bestows a single Friend —
Circumference without Relief —
Or Estimate — or End

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

أنا لا أحد! وأنتَ من تكون؟
هل أنت أيضًا، لا أحد ؟
وٕاذًا فثمة اثنان منّا- إيّاكَ أن تخبر أحدا!
وٕالا ألقوا بنا في المنفى – كما تعلم.
كم هو موحشٌ وكئيب أن تكون شخصا ما.
كم هو شعبيٌّ وعموميٌّ ومُشاع، مثل ضفدع.
أن أناديك باسمك اليومَ بطولِه
في ذلك المستنقع البديع.
