More Quotes by Edgar Allan Poe
I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom.
They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night
Happiness is not to be found in knowledge, but in the acquisition of knowledge
All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.
Believe only half of what you see and nothing that you hear.
If you run out of ideas follow the road; you'll get there
The best things in life make you sweaty.
The scariest monsters are the ones that lurk within our souls.
There is no beauty without some strangeness
Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears.
