“That it will never come again is what makes life sweet.”

I tasted life.

To live is so startling it leaves little time for anything else.

Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.

The soul should always stand ajar, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience.

Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.

Fortune befriends the bold.

Beauty is not caused. It is.

If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain.

Not knowing when the dawn will come I open every door.

I am out with lanterns, looking for myself.

Celebrity is the chastisement of merit and the punishment of talent.

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul – and sings the tunes without the words – and never stops at all.

We both believe, and disbelieve a hundred times an hour, which keeps believing nimble.

Hope never stops at all.

The soul selects her own society, Then shuts the door; On her divine majority Obtrude no more.

You left me boundaries of pain Capacious as the sea, Between eternity and time, Your consciousness and me.

If we do not find anything very pleasant, at least we shall find something new.

When the wind blows,the grass bends.

The sun shines not on us but in us.

Time flows away like the water in the river.

The world is before you, and you need not take it or leave it as it was when you came in.

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.”

The things we fear the most have already happened to us.

If you want to discover new oceans, you must first have the courage to leave shore.
