More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
The roses under my window make no reference to former roses or better ones they are what they are they exist with God today. There is no time to them. There is simply the rose it is perfect in every moment of its existence.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
An English family consists of a few persons, who, from youth to age, are found revolving within a few feet of each other, as if tied by some invisible ligature, tense as that cartilage which we have seen attaching the two Siamese.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We must be our own before we can be another's.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We do not count a man's years until he has nothing else to count.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The mind does not create what it perceives, any more than the eye creates the rose.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Nature encourages no looseness pardons no errors.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
War, to sane men at the present day, begins to look like an epidemic insanity, breaking out here and there like the cholera or influenza, infecting men's brains instead of their bowels.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
All that can be done for you is nothing to what you can do for yourself.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I have heard that whoever loves is in no condition old.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
For you, o broker, there is no other principle but arithmetic. For me, commerce is of trivial import love, faith, truth of character, the aspiration of man, these are sacred nor can I detach one duty, like you, from all other duties, and concentrate my forces mechanically on the payment of moneys.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Good as is discourse, silence is better and shames it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The right eloquence needs no bell to call the people together, and no constable to keep them.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Human beings cannot endure the geological chaos they encounter under the soil of their own gardens.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Earth endures Stars abide.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The private life of one man shall be a more illustrious monarchy,--more formidable to its enemy, more sweet and serene in its influence to its friend, than any kingdom in history. For a man, rightly viewed, comprehendeth the particular natures of all men.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Life has a way of demanding that you live it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I pay the schoolmaster, but 'tis the schoolboys that educate my son.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The primary wisdom is intuition.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We but half express ourselves, and are ashamed of that divine idea which each of us represents. It may be safely trusted as proportionate and of good issues, so it be faithfully imparted, but God will not have his work made manifest by cowards.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
No member of a crew is praised for the rugged individuality of his rowing.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
