More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Throughout the ages there have always been those who have been willing to go beyond the norms and reach for that unknown and distant star.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do not tell me of my obligation to put all poor men in good situations. Are they my poor? I tell thee, thou foolish philanthropist, that I grudge the dollar, the dime, the cent, I give to such men as do not belong to me and to whom I do not belong
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Our age is very cheap and intelligible. Unroof any house, and you shall find it. The well-being consists in having a sufficiency of coffee and toast, with a daily newspaper a well glazed parlor, with marbles, mirrors and centre-table and the excitement of a few parties and a few rides in a year.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Democracy is morose, and runs to anarchy, but in the state, and in the schools, it is indispensable to resist the consolidation ofall men into a few men.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Art is not to be found by touring to Egypt, China, or Peru if you cannot find it at your own door, you will never find it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
To different minds, the same world is a hell, and a heaven depending on whether they compare it to something better and so feel disappointed and bitter or something worse and so feel relieved and grateful.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
In youth, we clothe ourselves with rainbows, and go as brave as the zodiac.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Every man believes that he has greater possibilities.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
People do not deserve to have good writing, they are so pleased with bad.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The best of life is conversation.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The life of man is the true romance, which when it is valiantly conduced, will yield the imagination a higher joy than any fiction.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
And what greater calamity can fall upon a nation than the loss of worship.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The believing we do something when we do nothing is the first illusion of tobacco.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A strong person makes the law and custom null before his own will.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Bonaparte knew but one merit, and rewarded in one and the same way the good soldier, the good astronomer, the good poet, the good player.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Labor is God's education.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
You must pay for conformity. All goes well as long as you run with conformists. But you, who are honest men in other particulars, know that there is alive somewhere a man whose honesty reaches to this point also, that he shall not kneel to false gods, and, on the day when you meet him, you sink into the class of counterfeits.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Who loses a day loses life.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
