Experience is the only teacher, and we get his lesson indifferently in any school.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Wise men put their trust in ideas and not in circumstances.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I look on trade and every mechanical craft as education also. But let me discriminate what is precious herein. There is in each ofthese works an act of invention, an intellectual step, or short series of steps taken that act or step is the spiritual act all the rest is mere repetition of the same a thousand times.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is guidance for each of us, and by lowly listening we shall hear the right word.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
