Ralph Waldo Emerson
God builds his temple in the heart on the ruins of churches and religions.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
My life should be unique it should be an alms, a battle, a conquest, a medicine.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
I pack my trunk, embrace my friends, embark on the sea and at last wake up in Naples, and there beside me is the stern fact, the sad self, unrelenting, identical, that I fled from.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The world is the perennial miracle which the soul worketh.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I suppose every old scholar has had the experience of reading something in a book which was significant to him, but which he could never find again. Sure he is that he read it there, but no one else ever read it, nor can he find it again, though he buy the book and ransack every page.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
One thing is forever good That one thing is Success.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Teaching is the perpetual end and office of all things. Teaching, instruction is the main design that shines through the sky and earth.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you take in a lie, you must take in all that belongs to it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Pain, indolence, sterility, endless ennui have also their lesson for you, if you are great.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I have no hostility to nature, but a child's love to it. I expand and live in the warm day like corn and melons.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
