More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Unhappily, no man exists who has not in his own person become, to some amount, a stockholder in the sin, and so made himself liable to a share in the expiation.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is no strong performance without a little fanaticism in the performer.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
To Be is to live with God.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Some of your griefs you have cured, And the sharpest you still have survived, But what torments of grief you've endured From evils that never arrived.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The last change in our point of view gives the whole world a pictorial air.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Your work should be in praise of what you love.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Our distrust is very expensive.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A friend, therefore, is a sort of paradox in nature. I who alone am, I who see nothing in nature whose existence I can affirm with equal evidence to my own, behold now the semblance of my being, in all its height, variety, and curiosity, reiterated in a foreign form so that a friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Good as is discourse, silence is better and shames it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Oh, be my friend, and teach me to be thine!
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Talent for talent's sake is a bauble and a show. Talent working with joy in the cause of universal truth lifts the possessor to new power as a benefactor.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Poverty demoralizes. A man in debt is so far a slave and Wall-street thinks it easy for a millionaire to be a man of his word, aman of honor, but, that, in failing circumstances, no man can be relied on to keep his integrity.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is one of the biggest blessing that you can be stupid with your true friends and behave like you shame to do elsewhere
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The State is our neighbors our neighbors are the State.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Speak the affirmative emphasize your choice by utter ignoring of all that you reject.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Nothing is more disgusting than the crowing about liberty by slaves, as most men are, and the flippant mistaking for freedom of some paper preamble like a Declaration of Independence, or the statute right to vote, by those who have never dared to think or to act.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A man in the view of absolute goodness, adores, with total humility. Every step downward, is a step upward. The man who renounceshimself, comes to himself.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A man cannot speak but he judges himself
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Flowers are the earth laughing.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
