Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Empirical science is apt to cloud the sight, and, by the very knowledge of functions and processes, to bereave the student of themanly contemplation of the whole.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do what you know and perception is converted into character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
