There is some awe mixed with the joy of our surprise, when this poet, who lived in some past world, two or three hundred years ago, says that which lies close to my own soul, that which I also had wellnigh thought and said (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Few and mean as my gifts may be, I actually am, and do not need for my own assurance or the assurance of my fellows any secondary testimony (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)

Economy does not consist in saving the coal, but in using the time while it burns (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
There are geniuses in trade as well as in war, or the state, or letters; and the reason why this or that man is fortunate is not to be told. It lies in the man: that is all anybody can tell you about it (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
English history is aristocracy with the doors open. Who has courage and faculty, let him come in (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
And of poetry, the success is not attained when it lulls and satisfies, but when it astonishes and fires us with new endeavours after the unattainable (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
There is, in all great poets, a wisdom of humanity which is superior to any talents they exercise (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
A state of war or anarchy, in which law has little force, is so far valuable, that it puts every man on trial. The man of principle is known as such, and even in the fury of faction is respected (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The primary wisdom is intuition. In that deep force, the last fact behind which analysis cannot go, all things find their origin (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
I think it is the best of humanity that goes out to walk. In happy hours, I think all affairs may be wisely postponed for walking (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
I am constrained every moment to acknowledge a higher origin for events than the will I call mine (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
It behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Good churches are not built by bad men; at least, there must be probity and enthusiasm somewhere in the society. These minsters were neither built nor filled by atheists (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Europe has always owed to oriental genius its divine impulses. What these holy bards said, all sane men found agreeable and true (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Beauty is the moment of transition, as if the form were just ready to flow into other forms (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The most useful man in the most useful world, so long as only commodity was served, would remain unsatisfied. But, as fast as he sees beauty, life acquires a very high value (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Without the great arts which speak to the sense of beauty, a man seems to me a poor, naked, shivering creature. These are his becoming draperies, which warm and adorn him (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
We call the beautiful the highest, because it appears to us the golden mean, escaping the dowdiness of the good and the heartlessness of the true (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Thought is the seed of action; but action is as much its second form as thought is its first (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
By going one step further back in thought, discordant opinions are reconciled by being seen to be two extremes of one principle, and we can never go so far back as to preclude a still higher vision (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Generalization is always a new influx of divinity into the mind. Hence the thrill that attends it (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Thought dissolves the material universe by carrying the mind up into a sphere where all is plastic (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
What is addressed to us for contemplation does not threaten us, but makes us intellectual beings (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Why needs a man be rich? Why must he have horses, fine garments, handsome apartments, access to public houses, and places of amusement? Only for want of thought (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The crystal sphere of thought is as concentrical as the geological structure of the globe. As our soils and rocks lie in strata, concentric strata, so do all men’s thinkings run laterally, never vertically (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
How much more the seeker of abstract truth, who needs periods of isolation, and rapt concentration, and almost a going out of thebody to think! (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
