We are disgusted by gossip; yet it is of importance to keep the angels in their proprieties

Ralph Waldo Emerson, a renowned American essayist and philosopher, was a firm believer in the power of individualism and self-reliance. He emphasized the importance of staying true to oneself and not being swayed by the opinions or gossip of others. In his essay "Self-Reliance," Emerson famously wrote, "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."

Emerson believed that gossip was a destructive force that could undermine one's sense of self and lead to unnecessary judgment and criticism. He saw gossip as a distraction from one's true purpose and potential, and he urged individuals to focus on their own personal growth and development instead of getting caught up in the opinions of others.

At the same time, Emerson recognized the importance of maintaining a sense of propriety and respect for others. He understood that there were certain social norms and expectations that needed to be upheld in order to maintain harmony and order in society. While he may have been disgusted by gossip, he also understood that there were times when it was necessary to keep the angels in their proprieties.
