Poetry Quote by Edgar Allan Poe — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting”

“I”

“Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.”

“The idea of God, infinity, or spirit stands for the possible attempt at an impossible conception.”

“Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. In their gray visions they obtain glimpses of eternity, and thrill, in waking, to find that they have been upon the verge of the great secret. In snatches, they learn something of the wisdom which is of good, and more of the mere knowledge which is of evil.”

“I have no words — alas! — to tell”

“Poetry heals the wounds inflicted by reason.”

“I will deck thee with trophies, garlands of my defeat. It is never in my power to escape unconquered.”

“Love, all alike, no season knows nor clime,”

“I never heard sound and thrill of my painful heart until that very day she touched it.”

“Life without strife is a rose without thorns.”

“Her skin smells of vintage books and pale moonlight, exotic things, forbidden loves and rainy nights.”
