Edgar Allan Poe Quote #2

Quote Of The Day

Edgar Allan Poe Quote:

Edgar Allan Poe Quote
It’s Halloween season, of course I had to share an Edgar Allan Poe quote!

What’s Up With Pooj?

In case anyone was wondering, yes my eyebrow did grow back and is pretty much back to normal now lol. For those of you that missed it, I accidentally waxed off half my eyebrow last month. Read more about it here.

Not too much has been happening in my life as I’ve been pretty preoccupied with my parents and my own health. However, on Thursday I went out for drinks with some cousins down from Australia. I got what was supposed to be a chocolate milkshake (I think it was called the Choco-Shake) and for the first time in my life I experienced what it was like to have a bad milkshake. All it tasted like was mint. And I actually like mint chocolate but they hadn’t used that, they had used actual mint leave. It was so nasty. I drank it all… I’m disgusting

It was fun to go outside and relax for a bit even if it was only a few hours.

Oh and I bought a few books on sale that I really wanted which made me immensely happy!

  1. Very brave of you to drink what wasn’t you your liking. I would have sent it back.
    The quote is very apt, especially for writers. Thanks for sharing

    1. Thanks so much. Haha yeah, one of my cousins did have to send their drink back because it was completely incorrect.

      1. If we pay for food, it should be what we ordered.

        1. Yeah, that’s true.

          1. 👍🏼👍🏼

  2. I love the Edgar Allen Poe Quote by you. Have wonderful week.

    1. Glad to hear that and thanks so much. Have a wonderful week too.

  3. Nice quote

    1. Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.

  4. Love the quote, Pooja. I hope you are feeling better, Sweetheart.

    1. Thanks so much, yes I’m doing much better.

  5. This quote is so poignant. I love it! Here’s to a wonderful week.

    1. Thank you, it’s one of my favourite. Have a wonderful week too!

  6. I like the quote, Pooja, and I had to snicker that you drank it anyway. I probably would have too. 😬😂🍺

    1. Thank you and lol yeah as long as it’s sweet I’ll drink it anyway 😜

      1. 😂😂🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

  7. I presume he means thinks visionary thoughts rather than sleep dream about the usual nonsense we dream about each night. LOL. As an administrator if I find someone sleeping on the job they will have a little talk with me to find out why they do that. If they have no good excuse they find another job.

    1. Haha that’s fair, sleeping on the job is definitely a problem.

  8. I’m an absolute milkshake junkie. And that’s the first time I’ve heard of a place actually making a bad milkshake. Wild! And I don’t blame you at all for drinking it anyway. Can’t let that money go to waste! 😂

    1. I know, I didn’t think bad milkshakes are even an option- I always get milkshakes and they’re usually do good! Lol for sure 😅

  9. so all my teachers were wrong, all that time in class I spent daydreaming was a good thing

    1. Oh for sure.

  10. Excellent Puja, it seems great I T company Cognizant took name from this

    1. Thank you so much. Yes, perhaps so although cognizant is a pretty popular word.

      1. Yes, it could be so !

  11. I taught Poe for many batches of students. . His Cask of Amontillado is excellent

    1. That’s great, Poe is one of my absolute favourites.

  12. Somebody there loves mint a bit too much and expect customers to love it too. I went to a restaurant where the chef loved garlic a bit too much. I do not like garlic very much but I accept some garlic, the normal dose. I ordered a hamburger and there were garlic cloves all over it and a garlic sauce with lots of garlic. I could not eat it even after scarping off the garlic cloves and the sauce. It was just way too much. The menu did not indicate the garlic bath even though garlic was mentioned. At least give customers a warning about the amount.

    1. Oh that’s definitely too much garlic. I would assume it would lead to pretty bad acid reflux too. I’m not the biggest fan of garlic either so I totally understand. They should definitely mention that on the menu.

  13. A bad milkshake – yikes, that’s a rarity! How traumatizing! Glad you got out for a few hours – I think it really makes a difference!

    1. I know, this was definitely a first! Thanks so much, it did make a big difference!

  14. 🙏👍🌹nice

    Aum Shanti

  15. I did miss that!! Your hair/eyebrows must grow fast. 😀 I love Poe, and the quote, of course anything wise to do with dreaming. <3 <3 <3

    1. Haha yes thankfully my hair grows back really fast! Same here, as someone who loves daydreaming this is one of my favourite quotes 😊

      1. May life afford more daydreaming!

        1. Fingers crossed!

  16. Hard not to drink a milkshake. So a rare bad one can really ruin a day!

    1. I know, it’s so crazy to make a milkshake wrong!

    1. Lol I did, well technically waxed half of it off but it’s back now fully! Oh yes, I know your schedule is always full too 😅

  19. I love the quote. I find I rarely dream at night anymore or at least if I do, I don’t remember them. The cooler weather is here now, so I finally gave in and turned my furnace on, lol.

    1. Thanks so much. Oh that’s nice, I dream a lot due to the melatonin pills I take. That’s nice, enjoy the cooler weather.

  20. Here’s to dreamers! Dream on Pooj!

    1. Dreamers are often the ones who change the world!

  21. Glad to hear you were able to get out, even if it ended up with a bad milk shake, hahahahaha 😀
    Which books did you end up getting?

    1. Thanks so much. Lol yeah, the milkshake was crazy why in the world would they add mint leaves to it. 😅
      I got The Silent Patient and the entire series of A Good Girls Guide To Murder.

    Neat quote. Glad you got out and had some fun.

    1. Thank you so much.

  23. Great quote. Glad to know you’re back to dual eyebrows, and out ono the town, even if the milkshake was subpar! Good song by the Smiths. This week I’m enjoying Manic Street Preachers’ “People Ruin Paintings.” Great song.

    1. Thank you so much! I think I saw you mention that song on your blog, I saw the email and was like I’ll have to check this one out that’s a great name for a song.

      1. You’re welcome! Yes, it was from yesterday so was on my mind!

  24. wonderful quote

    1. Thank you ☺️

      1. You’re welcome!

  25. Trifecta! I’m glad you’re feeling better; I love the quote; may all your dreams come true, Pooja!💞

    1. Thank you so much! So glad you liked it 😊💕

      1. You’re welcome.

  26. I like the Poe quotation. It invites us to allow time for daytime dreaming, maybe daytime wishing. I hope your parents are all right in their challenges. I hope your health is good or comes back like your eyebrow (hah). I’m afraid my health is bad, both the infection and the treatment causing pain.

    1. I’m glad you liked it. As someone that day dreams a lot I really liked the quote. Thank you, they are slowly doing better (much like my eyebrow lol). Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear about your health issues. I truly hope the infection goes away quickly and you feel better soon.

  27. That’s a great quote. I’ve never heard it before. 🤣😎🙃

    1. Glad you enjoyed it!

  28. I hate to be “that guy,” Pooj, but Poe’s middle name wasn’t “Allen.” It’s “Allan.”

    1. Thanks for letting me know, I’m so bad with spellings lol!

      1. As someone once commented about me…”Once a copy editor, always a copy editor.”

        1. Well in that case I’m thankful for your sharp editors eye!

  29. Thank goodness! Now, please take better care of your eyebrows! 😆😂🤣

    1. Lol will do, I wax them so slowly now and am extra careful 😅

      1. 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾 Lol!

  30. Love the quote !!! I didn’t know there was such a thing as a bad milkshake (The Horror of it all) !!! I shake my fists towards the heavens for you ~ 😀 and happy your eyebrow is back … more arching in sarcasm ahead !!!

    1. Yes, out of all the horrors this month will bring the milkshake was the worth lol 😂 Yes, the eyebrow is back and at it!

  31. Hi Pooj,
    What books did you buy? I bought some books recently, but haven’t looked at them yet cause we went traveling. This week we are leaving Georgia for Istanbul, it’s quite amazing as we are spending a few days there before going back home.
    Here is the song I heard from the car in Tbilisi
    https://youtu.be/GiZJ1Jqiy0E?si=gKOlL5rvGM4_MS4G

    1. I got The Silent Patient and the A Good Girls Guide To Murder series (three books). How exciting, enjoy your travels in Istanbul. And such a fun song, love the vibe.

  32. Nice quote 💯

    1. Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

  33. That quote is so very true! 💞💞💞

    1. I thought so too! 💕

  34. I have always loved Edgar Allan Poe’s quotes for their exploration of themes like madness, death, and beauty, often expressed with a dark and mysterious tone. Thanks for sharing, and have a good day 🙂 Aiva xx

    1. Yeah, his writing is filled with those themes and I love it too. I’ve been rereading his poetry and short stories. Happy to share it and have a good day too. 🙂
