"It will be found, in fact, that the ingenious are always fanciful,

and the truly imaginative never otherwise than analytic."

- from "The Murders in the Rue Morgue"

Convinced myself, I seek not to convince."

- from "Berenice"

"There are moments when, even to the sober eye of Reason,

the world of our sad Humanity may assume the semblance of a Hell -

- but the imagination of man is no Carathis, to explore with impunity its every cavern.

Alas! the grim legion of sepulchral terrors cannot be regarded as altogether fanciful -

- but, like the Demons in whose company Afrasiab made his voyage down the Oxus,

they must sleep, or they will devour us -- they must be suffered to slumber, or we perish."

- from "The Premature Burial"

"There are two bodies — the rudimental and the complete ;

corresponding with the two conditions of the worm and the butterfly.

What we call "death," is but the painful metamorphosis.

Our present incarnation is progressive, preparatory, temporary.

Our future is perfected, ultimate, immortal. The ultimate life is the full design."

- from "The Mesmeric Revelation"

"They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those

who dream only by night."

- from "Eleonora"
