Alexander Pope1 quote
Thus let me live, unseen, unknown; Thus unlamented let me die; Steal from the world, and not a stone Tell where I lie. — Alexander Pope · 1700
Emily Dickinson1 quote
I'm Nobody! Who are you? Are you–Nobody–Too? Then there's a pair of us? Don't tell! they'd advertise–you know! How dreary–to be–Somebody! How public–like a Frog– To tell one's name–the livelong June – To an admiring Bog! — Emily Dickinson · 1886
