Emily Dickinson słynne cytaty

„Nadzieja ma skrzydła, przysiada w duszy i śpiewa pieśń bez słów, która nigdy nie ustaje, a jej najsłodsze dźwięki słychać nawet podczas wichury.”

Emily Dickinson

„Nie miałam czasu na Nienawiść
Bo
Grób mi był Przegrodą —
Życie nie było
Dość pojemne —
Aby w nim zmieścić – Wrogość”

Emily Dickinson

Źródło: Nie miałam czasu, tłum. Stanisław Barańczak

„Kochający nie mogą umrzeć, bo miłość jest nieśmiertelna.”

Emily Dickinson

„Wspólna śliwka to nie śliwka. Miałam zbyt wiele respektu, aby zjeść miąższ, a pestek nie lubię.”

Emily Dickinson

Źródło: List do świata (ang. The letters of Emily Dickinson, 1970), tłum. Danuta Piestrzyńska

„Niebo – to, czego nie dosięgam!
Już jabłko na jabłoni —
Gdy Gałąź dłuższa niż Nadzieja —
Jest Niebem – dla mej Dłoni!”

Emily Dickinson

Źródło: Niebo – to, czego nie dosięgam!

„Nadzieja jest tym upierzonym
Stworzeniem na gałązce
Duszy – co śpiewa melodie
Bez słów i nie milknące”

Emily Dickinson: Cytaty po angielsku

“A charm invests a face
Imperfectly beheld,—
The lady dare not lift her veil
For fear it be dispelled.

But peers beyond her mesh,
And wishes, and denies,—
Lest interview annul a want
That image satisfies.”

Emily Dickinson

Wariant: Till I loved I never lived.

“Fame is a fickle food
Upon a shifting plate,
Whose table once a Guest, but not
The second time, is set.
Whose crumbs the crows inspect,
And with ironic caw
Flap past it to the Farmer’s corn;
Men eat of it and die.”

Collected Poems (1993)

“The bustle in a house
The morning after death
Is solemnest of industries
Enacted upon earth,--
The sweeping up the heart,
And putting love away
We shall not want to use again
Until eternity”

“A precious, mouldering pleasure ’t is
To meet an antique book,
In just the dress his century wore;
A privilege, I think.”

By those who ne'er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires a sorest need.Not one of all the purple Host
Who took the Flag today
Can tell the definition
So clear of VictoryAs he defeated — dying —
On whose forbidden ear
The distant strains of triumph
Burst agonized and clear!</p

“I wonder if it hurts to live,
And if they have to try,
And whether, could they choose between,
They would not rather die.”

Emily Dickinson

“We never know how high we are
Till we are called to rise;
And then, if we are true to plan,
Our statures touch the skies.

The heroism we recite
Would be a daily thing,
Did not ourselves the cubits warp
For fear to be a king.”

“I never saw a moor,
I never saw the sea;
Yet know I how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.
I never spoke with God,
Nor visited in heaven;
Yet certain am I of the spot
As if the chart were given.”

“I HIDE myself within my flower
That wearing on your breast,
You, unsuspecting, wear me too—
And angels know the rest.

I hide myself within my flower,
That, fading from your vase,
You, unsuspecting, feel for me
Almost a loneliness…”

“Bless God, he went as soldiers,
His musket on his breast;
Grant, God, he charge the bravest
Of all the martial blest.

Please God, might I behold him
In epauletted white,
I should not fear the foe then,
I should not fear the fight.”

Who, till they died, did not alive become;
Who, had they lived, had died, but when
They died, vitality begun.”

The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson (1960)

“It makes no difference abroad,
The seasons fit the same,
The mornings blossom into noons,
And split their pods of flame.

Wild-flowers kindle in the woods,
The brooks brag all the day;
No blackbird bates his jargoning
For passing Calvary.

Auto-da-fé and judgment
Are nothing to the bee;
His separation from his rose
To him seems misery.”

Nature, p. 120

“I reason, earth is short,
And anguish absolute.
And many hurt;
But what of that?

I reason, we could die:
The best vitality
Cannot excel decay;
But what of that?

I reason that in heaven
Somehow, it will be even,
Some new equation given;
But what of that?”

“How happy is the little stone
That rambles in the road alone,
And does n’t care about careers,
And exigencies never fears;
Whose coat of elemental brown
A passing universe put on;
And independent as the sun,
Associates or glows alone,
Fulfilling absolute decree
In casual simplicity.”

The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson (1960)

“No rack can torture me,
My soul 's at liberty.
Behind this mortal bone
There knits a bolder one

You cannot prick with saw,
Nor rend with scymitar.
Two bodies therefore be;
Bind one, and one will flee.

The eagle of his nest
No easier divest
And gain the sky,
Than mayest thou,

Except thyself may be
Thine enemy;
Captivity is consciousness,
So's liberty.”

“So proud she was to die
It made us all ashamed
That what we cherished, so unknown
To her desire seemed.

So satisfied to go
Where none of us should be,
Immediately, that anguish stooped
Almost to jealousy.”

Without a quicker blood,
A sudden expectation,

By soldiers battered down,
But I tug childish at my bars,—
Only to fail again!”

A solitude of death, but these

Compared with that profounder site,
That polar privacy,
A Soul admitted to Itself:
Finite Infinity.”
