“A word is dead
When it is said,”
― Emily Dickinson, Poems by Emily Dickinson, Third Series

“Who never wanted, — maddest joy
  Remains to him unknown:
The banquet of abstemiousness
  Surpasses that of wine.
Within its hope, though yet ungrasped
  Desire's perfect goal,
No nearer, lest reality
  Should disenthrall thy soul.”
― Emily Dickinson, Poems by Emily Dickinson, Third Series

“la sociedad es culpable por no dar instrucción gratis; es responsable de la oscuridad que con esto produce.”
― Victor Hugo, Los Miserables: Ilustrado

“If recollecting were forgetting,
  Then I remember not;
And if forgetting, recollecting,
  How near I had forgot!
And if to miss were merry,
  And if to mourn were gay,
How very blithe the fingers
  That gathered these to-day!”
― Emily Dickinson, Poems by Emily Dickinson, Third Series
