Emily Dickinson
Emily Dickinson was a Poet.  Her published collections of poetry are studied in
grade schools all over the country.


"A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day."

"A wounded deer leaps the highest."

"After great pain, a formal feeling comes. The Nerves sit ceremonious, like tombs."

"Beauty is not caused. It is."

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

"Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes."

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

"Dogs are better than human beings because they know but do not tell."
