“I really love Poe, but I think the American people have relegated him to a second place in the history of American Literature. In the rest of the world Poe is considered to be our major contribution to literature. He invented the detective story. He influenced all the great French poets; Baudelaire, Valery, Verlaine, as well as all of the great English Poets. His influence on the world of art was enormous. Almost every major artist of the 19th century illustrated Poe. Gustave Dore, Edouard Manet, Odilon Redon. Every country in the world recognized Poe long before we did.”

“Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.”

“Men have called me mad, but the question is not yet settled, whether madness is or is not the loftiest intelligence—whether much that is glorious—whether all that is profound—does not spring from disease of thought—from moods of mind exalted at the expense of the general intellect. Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night”
— Edgar Allan Poe (via louis-de-pointe-du-lac)
