Edgar Allan Poe

Literature is the most noble of professions. In fact, it is about the only one fit for a man. For my own part, there is no seducing me from the path.

[Edgar Allan Poe @Poe_Quotes]

Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears.

Vastness! and Age! and Memories of Eld!
Silence! and Desolation! and dim Night!
I feel ye now — I feel ye in your strength.

Thou wast all that to me, love,
For which my soul did pine...

Sound loves to revel in a summer night.

A dark unfathom'd tide
Of interminable pride —
A mystery, and a dream,
Should my early life seem.

And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.

Yes, Heaven is thine; but this
Is a world of sweets and sours;
Our flowers are merely—flowers.

Sound loves to revel in a summer night.

[Edgar Allan Poe @Poe_Quotes]

While, like a ghastly rapid river,
Through the pale door
A hideous throng rush out forever
And laugh — but smile no more.

[Edgar Allan Poe @Poe_Quotes]

Years of love have been forgot
In the hatred of a minute.
