AuthorQuotation

Emily Dickinson

The fog is rising.
I dwell in Possibility.
Beauty is not caused. It is.
Where thou art, that is home.
Let us go in; the fog is rising.
The Brain is wider than the sky-.
A wounded deer leaps the highest.
Finite to fail, but infinite to venture.
Love can do all but raise the Dead. . . .
