Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Adult males are what their moms designed them.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
To a physician, each man, each woman, is an amplification of one organ.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Yet a man may love a paradox, without losing either his wit or his honesty.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The way of Providence is a little rude. The habit of snake and spider, the snap of the tiger and other leapers and bloody jumpers, the crackle of the bones of his prey in the coil of the anaconda-these are in the system, and our habits are like theirs.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Man is made of the same atoms the world is, he shares the same impressions, predispositions, and destiny. When his mind is illuminated, when his heart is kind, he throws himself joyfully into the sublime order, and does, with knowledge, what the stones do by structure.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
In good company, the individuals merge their egotism into a social soul exactly co-extensive with the several consciousnesses there present.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
No nation has produced anything like his equal. There is no quality in the human mind, there is no class of topics, there is no region of thought, in which he has not soared or descended, and none in which he has not said the commanding word.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The best political economy is the care and culture of men for, in these crises, all are ruined except such as are proper individuals, capable of thought, and of new choice and the application of their talent to new labor.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
When there is sympathy, there needs but one wise man in a company and all are wise,--so, a blockhead makes a blockhead of his companion. Wonderful power to benumb possesses this brother.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What is addressed to us for contemplation does not threaten us, but makes us intellectual beings.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Hast thou named all the birds without a gun?
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The truth, the hope of any time, must always be sought in minorities.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Knowledge exists to be imparted.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
