More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Invention breeds invention.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If we live truly, we shall see truly. It is as easy for the strong man to be strong, as it is for the weak to be weak.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
As sunbeams stream through liberal space And nothing jostle or displace, So waved the pine-tree through my thought And fanned the dreams it never brought.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Our statute is a currency which we stamp with our own portrait.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Without the great arts which speak to the sense of beauty, a man seems to me a poor, naked, shivering creature. These are his becoming draperies, which warm and adorn him.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If your friend has displeased you, you shall not sit down to consider it, for he has already lost all memory of the passage, and has doubled his power to serve you, and, ere you can rise up again, will burden you with blessings.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Love not the flower they pluck and know it not, And all their botany is Latin names.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
We are disgusted by gossip yet it is of importance to keep the angels in their proprieties.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We owe to man higher succors than food and fire. We owe to man, man.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Eyes...They speak all languages.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
My companion assumes to know my mood and habit of thought, and we go on from explanation to explanation, until all is said that words can, and we leave matters just as they were at first, because of that vicious assumption.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Another sort of false prayers are our regrets. Discontent is the way of self-reliance: it is infirmity of will. Regret calamities, if you can thereby help the sufferer if not, attend your own work, and already the evil begins to be repaired.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The universal soul is the alone creator of the useful and the beautiful therefore to make anything useful or beautiful, the individual must be submitted to the universal mind.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is no man of Nature's worth In the circle of the earth.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
