The solid, solid universe Is pervious to Love With bandaged eyes he never errs, Around, below, above. His blinding light He flingeth white On God's and Satan's brood, And reconciles By mystic wiles The evil and the good.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
The charm of the best courages is that they are inventions, inspirations, flashes of genius.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What you do thunders above your head so loudly, I cannot hear the words you speak.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The dice of God are always loaded.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
All minds quote. Old and new make the warp and woof of every moment. There is no thread that is not a twist of these two strands. By necessity, by proclivity, and by delight, we all quote. We quote not only books and proverbs, but arts, sciences, religion, customs, and laws nay, we quote temples and houses, tables and chairs, by imitation.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Two sorts of writers possess genius: those who think, and those who cause others to think.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
