More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Live well, learn plenty, laugh often, love much.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Is the parent better than the child into whom he has cast his ripened being? Whence, then, this worship of the past?
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A man must consider what a rich realm he abdicates when he becomes a conformist.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I am sure of this, that by going much alone a man will get more of a noble courage in thought and word than from all the wisdom that is in books.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sickness is poor-spirited, and cannot serve anyone it must husband its resources to live. But health or fullness answers its own ends, and has to spare, runs over, and inundates the neighborhoods and creeks of other men's necessities.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
In different hours, a man represents each of several of his ancestors, as if there were seven or eight of us rolled up in each man's skin, - seven or eight ancestors at least, and they constitute the variety of notes for that new piece of music which his life is.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do not fear to put novels into the hands of young people as an occasional holiday experiment, but above all, good poetry in all kinds,--epic, tragedy, lyric. If we can touch the imagination, we serve them they will never forget it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The multitude of false churches accredits the true religion.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The mass are animal, in pupilage, and near chimpanzee.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Philanthropic and religious bodies do not commonly make their executive officers out of saints.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A day for toil, an hour for sport, but for a friend is life too short.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is always a practical difficulty with clubs to regulate the laws of election so as to exclude peremptorily every social nuisance. Nobody wishes bad manners. We must have loyalty and character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A fact is the end or last issue of spirit. The visible creation is the terminus or the circumference of the invisible world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Marriage (in what is called the spiritual world) is impossible, because of the inequality between every subject and every object.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
To educate the wise man, the State exists and with the appearance of the wise man, the State expires. The appearance of charactermakes the state unnecessary. The wise man is the State.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Everything in nature goes by law, and not by luck.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Life is a series of surprises and would not be worth taking or keeping if it were not.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
So use all that is called Fortune. Most men gamble with her, and gain all, and lose all, as her wheel rolls. But do thou leave as unlawful these winnings, and deal with Cause and Effect, the Chancellors of God.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Talent alone cannot make a writer. There must be a man behind the book.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Human beings cannot endure the geological chaos they encounter under the soil of their own gardens.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
