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.”

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

Emily Dickinson

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

Emily Dickinson

Stworzeniem na gałązce
Duszy – co śpiewa melodie
Bez słów i nie milknące”

When they take the knife!

Stirs the culprit,—Life!”

Life, p. 25
Collected Poems (1993)

“I took my power in my hand
And went against the world;
’T was not so much as David had,
But I was twice as bold.

I aimed my pebble, but myself
Was all the one that fell.
Was it Goliath was too large,
Or only I too small?”

“The blunder is to estimate,—
“Eternity is Then,”
We say, as of a station.
Meanwhile he is so near,
He joins me in my ramble,
Divides abode with me,
No friend have I that so persists
As this Eternity.”

The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson (1960)

“Not with a Club, the Heart is broken
Nor with a Stone —
A Whip so small you could not see it
I've known

To lash the Magic Creature
Till it fell,
Yet that Whip's Name
Too noble then to tell.

Magnanimous as Bird
By Boy descried —
Singing unto the Stone
Of which it died —

Shame need not crouch
In such an Earth as Ours —
Shame — stand erect —
The Universe is yours.”

“Fate slew him, but he did not drop;
She felled—he did not fall—
Impaled him on her fiercest stakes—
He neutralized them all.

She stung him, sapped his firm advance,
But, when her worst was done,
And he, unmoved, regarded her,
Acknowledged him a man.”

And sore must be the storm —
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm — ”

“The grass so little has to do,—
A sphere of simple green,
With only butterflies to brood,
And bees to entertain,

And stir all day to pretty tunes
The breezes fetch along,
And hold the sunshine in its lap
And bow to everything;

And thread the dews all night, like pearls,
And make itself so fine,-
A duchess were too common
For such a noticing.

And even when it dies, to pass
In odors so divine,
As lowly spices gone to sleep,
Or amulets of pine.

And then to dwell in sovereign barns,
And dream the days away,—
The grass so little has to do,
I wish I were a hay!”

Bestows a single Friend —

“It tossed and tossed,—
A little brig I knew,—
O'ertook by blast,
It spun and spun,
And groped delirious, for morn.

It slipped and slipped,
As one that drunken stepped;
Its white foot tripped,
Then dropped from sight.

Ah, brig, good-night
To crew and you;
The ocean's heart too smooth, too blue,
To break for you.”

“Upon the gallows hung a wretch,
Too sullied for the hell
To which the law entitled him.
As nature’s curtain fell
The one who bore him tottered in,
For this was woman’s son.
“’T was all I had,” she stricken gasped;
Oh, what a livid boon!”

“There is a word
Which bears a sword
Can pierce an armed man.
It hurls its barbed syllables,—
At once is mute again.
But where it fell
The saved will tell
On patriotic day,
Some epauletted brother
Gave his breath away.Wherever runs the breathless sun,
Wherever roams the day,
There is its noiseless onset,
There is its victory!
Behold the keenest marksman!
The most accomplished shot!
Time’s sublimest target
Is a soul “forgot”!”

The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson (1960)

“Our journey had advanced;
Our feet were almost come
To that odd fork in Being's road,
Eternity by term.

Our pace took sudden awe,
Our feet reluctant led.
Before were cities, but between,
The forest of the dead.

Retreat was out of hope,—
Behind, a sealed route,
Eternity's white flag before,
And God at every gate.”

“Mine enemy is growing old,—
I have at last revenge.
The palate of the hate departs;

Let him be quick, the viand flits,
It is a faded meat.
Anger as soon as fed is dead;
’T is starving makes it fat.”

When what we need is by,
But when it leaves us for a time,

We fundamental know,
Except for its marauding hand,
It had been heaven below.”
