Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes

Cities give us collision. ‘Tis said, London and New York take the nonsense out of a man Picture Quote #1

Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of every one of its members. The virtue in most request is conformity. Self-reliance is its aversion. It loves not realities and creators, but names and customs Picture Quote #1

Truth gathers itself spotless and unhurt after all our surrenders and concealments and partisanship; never hurt by the treachery or ruin of its best defenders, whether Luther, or William Penn, or St. Paul Picture Quote #1

Say, what other metre is it Than the meeting of the eyes? Nature poureth into nature Through the channels of that feature Riding on the ray of sight, fleeter far than whirlwinds go, or for service, or delight, hearts to hearts their meaning show Picture Quote #1

There is genius as well in virtue as in intellect. ‘Tis the doctrine of faith over works Picture Quote #1

What art can paint or gild any object in after life with the glow which nature gives to the first baubles of childhood? St. Peter’s cannot have the magical power over us that the red and gold covers of our first picture-book possessed Picture Quote #1

Man begins life helpless. The babe is in paroxysms of fear the moment its nurse leaves it alone, and it comes so slowly to any power of self-protection that mothers say the salvation of the life and health of a young child is a perpetual miracle Picture Quote #1

Success in your work, the finding a better method, the better understanding that insures the better performing is hat and coat, is food and wine, is fire and horse and health and holiday. At least, I find that any success in my work has the effect on my spirits of all these Picture Quote #1

If we will take the good we find, asking no questions, we shall have heaping measures. The great gifts are not got by analysis. Everything good is on the highway. The middle region of our being is the temperate zone Picture Quote #1

The craft with which the world is made runs also into the mind and character of men. No man is quite sane; each has a vein of folly in his composition, a slight determination of blood to the head, to make sure of holding him hard to some one point which Nature has taken to heart Picture Quote #1

The secret of fortune is joy in our hands. Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man. For him all doors are flung wide. Him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire. Our love goes out to him and embraces him because he did not need it Picture Quote #1

We ask for long life, but ‘tis deep life, or noble moments that signify. Let the measure of time be spiritual, not mechanical Picture Quote #1

To this military attitude of the soul we give the name of Heroism... It is a self-trust which slights the restraints of prudence, in the plenitude of its energy and power to repair the harms it may suffer. The hero is a mind of such balance that no disturbances can shake his will Picture Quote #1

For each thorn, there’s a rosebud... For each twilight - a dawn... For each trial - the strength to carry on, For each storm cloud - a rainbow... For each shadow - the sun... For each parting - sweet memories when sorrow is done Picture Quote #1

Put God in your debt. Every stroke shall be repaid. The longer the payment is with-held, the better for you; for compound interest on compound interest is the rate and usage of this exchequer Picture Quote #1

The first and last lesson of religion is, ‘The things that are seen are temporal; the things that are not seen are eternal.’ It puts an affront upon nature Picture Quote #1

You take a weakness and start making it stronger.. You don’t have to build your strengths - that you already possess... It is your weakness that needs the exercise Picture Quote #1

Practice makes perfect - the sooner you start, the sooner you will be a happy nonsmoker Picture Quote #1

Wherever a man commits a crime, God finds a witness. Every secret crime has its reporter Picture Quote #1

Nations have lost their old omnipotence; the patriotic tiedoes not hold. Nations are getting obsolete, we go and live where we will Picture Quote #1

Respect the child. Wait and see the new product of Nature. Nature loves analogies, but not repetitions. Respect the child. Be not too much his parent. Trespass not on his solitude Picture Quote #1

Self-reliance is its aversion. It loves not realities and creators, but names and customs Picture Quote #1

More than the diamond Koh-i-noor, which glitters among their crown jewels, they prize the dull pebble which is wiser than a man, whose poles turn themselves to the poles of the world, and whose axis is parallel to the axis of the world. Now, their toys are steam and galvanism Picture Quote #1

Pines a thousand years old. Every year they must go farther for them: they recede, like beavers and Indians, before the white man Picture Quote #1

Nature is too thin a screen; the glory of the omnipresent God bursts through everywhere Picture Quote #1

Get Health. No labor, effort nor exercise that can gain it must be grudged Picture Quote #1

A skillful man reads his dreams for self-knowledge, yet not the details but the quality Picture Quote #1

Never lose an opportunity to see anything that is beautiful. It is God’s handwriting a wayside sacrament. Welcome it in every fair face, every fair sky, every fair flower Picture Quote #1

Knowledge is the antidote to fear. [especially as fear often stands for false evidence appearing real!] Picture Quote #1

Truth, and goodness, and beauty, are but different faces of the same All Picture Quote #1
