More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Governments have their origin in the moral identity of men.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
I am become a transparent eyeball.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The pleasure of life is according to the man that lives it, and not according to the work or place.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you criticize a fine genius, the odds are that you are out of your reckoning, and, instead of the poet, are censuring your owncaricature of him.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Heaven often protects valuable souls charged with great secrets, great ideas, by long shutting them up with their own thoughts.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We are not free to use today, or to promise tomorrow, because we are already mortgaged to yesterday.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Cities of mortals woe-begone Fantastic care derides, But in the serious landscape lone Stern benefit abides.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is curious that Christianity, which is idealism, is sturdily defended by the brokers, and steadily attacked by the idealists.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Necessity does everything well.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Youth is everywhere in place.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
