This year, my theme is Quotes from A-Z. Each day I will post a quote from a person whose name starts with each day's letter. It will be short and sweet but hopefully it will bring a moment of inspiration, laughter, or meditation to your busy day. I would love to hear your thoughts on the quotes in the comments or what other quote is your favorite by that day's person. On each Saturday, I will list all the quotes from the week and you can vote to tell me which was your favorite!
D is for Emily Dickinson
(1830-1886) American poet

"I dwell in possibility..."
Quote found on Goodreads
This week's quotes:
A- "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit." -Aristotle
B- “If money be not thy servant, it will be thy master. The covetous man cannot so properly be said to possess wealth, as that may be said to possess him.” -Francis Bacon
C- “...your grace's words have been like manure spread on the barren ground of my dry and uncultivated mind.” -Miguel de Cervantes, Don Quixote
D- "I dwell in possibility..."- Emily Dickinson
