Potvrdené výroky
The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague. Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins?
Predčasný pohreb, The Premature Burial - 1844
Potvrdené výroky
Who has not, a hundred times, found himself committing a vile or a stupid action, for no other reason than because he knows he should not?

Potvrdené výroky

Potvrdené výroky
To be buried while alive is, beyond question, the most terrific of these extremes which has ever fallen to the lot of mere mortality.

Edgar Allan Poe: Citáty v angličtine
“Come! let the burial rite be read — the funeral song be sung!”
An anthem for the queenliest dead that ever died so young —
A dirge for her the doubly dead in that she died so young.
"Lenore", st. 1 (1831).
“For the love of God Montresor!”
"The Cask of Amontillado" (1846).
quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!"
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
Stanza 17.
The Raven (1844)
“There is no oath which seems to me so sacred as that sworn by the all-divine love I bear you.”
By this love, then, and by the God who reigns in Heaven, I swear to you that my soul is incapable of dishonor — that, with the exception of occasional follies and excesses which I bitterly lament, but to which I have been driven by intolerable sorrow, and which are hourly committed by others without attracting any notice whatever — I can call to mind no act of my life which would bring a blush to my cheek — or to yours. If I have erred at all, in this regard, it has been on the side of what the world would call a Quixotic sense of the honorable — of the chivalrous.
" Letter to Mrs. Whitman http://www.lfchosting.com/eapoe/WORKS/letters/p4810181.htm" (1848-10-18).
then let thy heart
From its present pathway part not!
Being everything which now thou art,
Be nothing which thou art not.
So with the world thy gentle ways,
Thy grace, thy more than beauty,
Shall be an endless theme of praise,
And love — a simple duty.
" To Frances S. Osgood http://www.readbookonline.net/readOnLine/595/" (1845).
