Edgar Allan Poe9 quotes
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream. — Edgar Allan Poe · 1849Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,—
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. — Edgar Allan Poe · 1845Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form
from off my door!
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore." — Edgar Allan Poe · 1845We loved with a love that was more than love. — Edgar Allan Poe · 1849I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love,
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me. — Edgar Allan Poe · 1849From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were; I have not seen
As others saw. — Edgar Allan Poe · 1849All 9 quotes →
