Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Conversation is an art in which a man has all mankind for his competitors, for it is that which all are practising every day while they live.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Slavery is an institution for converting men into monkeys.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you would know what nobody knows, read what everybody reads, just one year afterwards.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
