More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
'Tis a superstition to insist on a special diet. All is made at last of the same chemical atoms.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Self reliance, the height and perfection of man, is reliance on God.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A man is relieved and gay when he has put his heart into his work and done his best but what he has said or done otherwise shall give him no peace.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is no luck in literary reputation. They who make up the final verdict upon every book are not the partial and noisy readers of the hour when it appears but a court as of angels, a public not to be bribed, not to be entreated, and not to be overawed, decides upon every man's title to fame.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you would lift me up you must be on higher ground.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is really no insurmountable barrier save your own inherent weakness of purpose.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
He needs no library, for he has not done thinking no church, for he is himself a prophet no statute book, for he hath the Lawgiver no money, for he is value itself no road, for he is at home where he is.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The private life of one man shall be a more illustrious monarchy,--more formidable to its enemy, more sweet and serene in its influence to its friend, than any kingdom in history. For a man, rightly viewed, comprehendeth the particular natures of all men.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Conformity is the ape of harmony.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Want is a growing giant whom the coat of have was never large enough to cover.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is more difference in the quality of our pleasures than in the amount.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The sun shines and warms and lights us and we have no curiosity to know why this is so but we ask the reason of all evil, of pain, and hunger, and mosquitoes and silly people.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Every thing admonishes us how needlessly long life is.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Heaven sometimes hedges a rare character about with ungainliness and odium, as the burr that protects the fruit.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A strenuous soul hates cheap success.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The household is a school of power. There, within the door, learn the tragi-comedy of human life.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Nothing astonishes men so much as common sense and plain dealing.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There are men whose manners have the same essential splendor as the simple and awful sculpture on the friezes of the Parthenon, and the remains of the earliest Greek art.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
