The judge weighs the arguments and puts a brave face on the matter, and since there must be a decision, decides as he can, and hopes he has done justice and given satisfaction to the community

More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
You cannot institute, without peril of charlatanism.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It seems to be a rule of wisdom never to rely on your memory alone, scarcely even in acts of pure memory, but to bring the past for judgment into the thousand-eyed present, and live ever in a new day.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We are rich only through what we give, and poor only through what we refuse.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Knowledge, Virtue, Power are the victories of man over his necessities, his march to the dominion of the world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I can believe a miracle because I can raise my own arm. I can believe a miracle because I can remember. I can believe it because I can speak and be understood by you.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
As many languages as he has, as many friends, as many arts and trades, so many times is he a man.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The perception of the comic is a tie of sympathy with other men.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What we commonly call man, the eating, drinking, planting, counting man, does not, as we know him, represent himself, but misrepresents himself. Him we do not respect, but the soul, whose organ he is, would he let it appear through his action, would make our knees bend.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Intellectual tasting of life will not supersede muscular activity.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A weed is a plant whose virtue is not yet known.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Many a reformer perishes in his removal of rubbish,--and that makes the offensiveness of the class. They are partial they are notequal to the work they pretend. They lose their way in the assault on the kingdom of darkness, they expend all their energy on some accidental evil, and lose their sanity and power of benefit.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Philanthropies and charities have a certain air of quackery.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If the single man plant himself indomitably on his instincts, and there abide, the huge world will come round to him.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Pride is handsome, economical pride eradicates so many vices, letting none subsist but itself, that it seems as if it were a great gain to exchange vanity for pride.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The language of the street is always strong.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Character is that which can do without success.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The House ...She lays her beams in music, In music everyone, To the cadence of the whirling world Which dances around the sun- That so they shall not be displaced By lapses or by wars, But for the love of happy souls Outlive the newest stars.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Concentration is the secret of strength in politics, in war, in trade, in short in all management of human affairs.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Life is in short cycles or periods we are quickly tired, but we have rapid rallies. A man is spent by his work, starved, prostrate he will not lift his hand to save his life he can never think more. He sinks into deep sleep and wakes with renewed youth, with hope, courage, fertile in resources, and keen for daring adventure.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is a greater joy to see the author's author, than himself.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
