More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
If the king is in the palace, nobody looks at the walls. It is when he is gone, and the house is filled with grooms and gazers, that we turn from the people, to find relief in the majestic men that are suggested by the pictures and the architecture.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
You cannot kindle a fire in any other heart until it is burning in your own.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Shall I tell you the secret of the true scholar? It is this: every man I meet is my master in some point, and in that I learn of him.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
The key to every man is his thought. Sturdy and defying though he look, he has a helm which he obeys, which is the idea after which all his facts are classified. He can only be reformed by showing him a new idea which commands his own.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We must not tamper with the organic motion of the soul.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
