9 QUOTES WITH «DICKINSON»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Dickinson.
1
Kate Bernheimer
I love the idea of the 'vignette,' which is associated with the decorative, illustrative, small, and thus with the feminine, and thus easily maligned. I mean, Emily Dickinson wrote vignettes, right?
2
Helen Oyeyemi
Dickinson is my hero because she was a joker, because she would never explain, because as a poet she confronted pain, dread and death, and because she was capable of speaking of those matters with both levity and seriousness. She's my hero because she was a metaphysical adventurer.

Helen Oyeyemi

4
Andy Richter
No, I don't know any Emily Dickinson poems!
5
Samantha Shannon
I was not really aware of the dystopian genre before I read 'The Handmaid's Tale.' Many poets as well, like John Donne and Emily Dickinson, would be the influences; I specialized in Emily Dickinson at university. Both of those poets have really interesting ways of looking at life and death.
6
Catherine Mary Stewart
Angie Dickinson in 'Hollywood Wives' took me under her wing. If you look at that cast, I was definitely an 'outcast'... so to speak. Most of them were of the same era, or just so much more experienced that I was.
7
Simon Van Booy
I think John Coltrane is one of the great American heroes, like Abraham Lincoln and Emily Dickinson.
8
Helen Vendler
I was unnerved to learn in my twenties that the poems of Emily Dickinson that I had memorized as a girl were not the poems as she had written them.
9
Tom Verlaine
Emily Dickinson has great sound and sense.
