There is no wholly masculine ...

There is no wholly masculine man, no purely feminine woman.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

The civilized man is a larger...

The civilized man is a larger mind but a more imperfect nature than the savage.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

But the golden-rod is one of ...

But the golden-rod is one of the fairy, magical flowers; it grows not up to seek human love amid the light of day, but to mark to the discerning what wealth lies hid in the secret caves of earth.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

Harmony exists no less in dif...

Harmony exists no less in difference than in likeness, if only the same key-note govern both parts.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

I have urged on woman indepen...

I have urged on woman independence of man, not that I do not think the sexes mutually needed by one another, but because in woman this fact has led to an excessive devotion, which has cooled love, degraded marriage and prevented it her sex from being what it should be to itself or the other. I wish woman to live, first for God's sake. Then she will not take what is not fit for her from a sense of weakness and poverty. Then if she finds what she needs in man embodied, she will know how to love and be worthy of being loved.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

Man is not made for society, ...

Man is not made for society, but society is made for man. No institution can be good which does not tend to improve the individual.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

It was not meant that the sou...

It was not meant that the soul should cultivate the earth, but that the earth should educate and maintain the soul.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

The critic is beneath the mak...

The critic is beneath the maker, but is his needed friend. The critic is not a base caviler, but the younger brother of genius. Next to invention is the power of interpreting invention; next to beauty the power of appreciating beauty. And of making others appreciate it.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

Every fact is impure, but eve...

Every fact is impure, but every fact contains in it the juices of life. Every fact is a clod, from which may grow an amaranth or a palm.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

There are noble books but one...

There are noble books but one wants the breath of life sometimes. And I see no divine person. I myself am more divine than any I see I think that is enough to say about them.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

Truth is the nursing mother o...

Truth is the nursing mother of genius.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

All around us lies what we ne...

All around us lies what we neither understand nor use. Our capacities, our instincts for this our present sphere are but half developed. Let us confine ourselves to that till the lesson be learned; let us be completely natural; before we trouble ourselves with the supernatural. I never see any of these things but I long to get away and lie under a green tree and let the wind blow on me. There is marvel and charm enough in that for me.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

We would have every arbitrary...

We would have every arbitrary barrier thrown down. We would have every path laid open to woman as freely as to man.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

I should never stand alone in...

I should never stand alone in this desert world, but that manna would drop from heaven, if I would but rise with every rising sun to gather it.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

Man can never come up to his ...

Man can never come up to his ideal standard. It is the nature of the immortal spirit to raise that standard higher and higher as it goes from strength to strength, still upward and onward. The wisest and greatest men are ever the most modest.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

I fear I have not one good wo...

I fear I have not one good word to say this fair morning, though the sun shines so encouragingly on the distant hills and gentle river and the trees are in their festive hues. I am not festive, though contented. When obliged to give myself to the prose of life, as I am on this occasion of being established in a new home I like to do the thing, wholly and quite, - to weave my web for the day solely from the grey yarn.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

Let no one dare to call anoth...

Let no one dare to call another mad who is not himself willing to rank in the same class for every perversion and fault of judgment. Let no one dare aid in punishing another as criminal who is not willing to suffer the penalty due to his own offenses.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

If anything can be invented m...

If anything can be invented more excruciating than an English Opera, such as was the fashion at the time I was in London, I am sure no sin of mine deserves the punishment of bearing it.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

Our capacities, our instincts...

Our capacities, our instincts for this our present sphere are but half developed. Let us be completely natural; before we trouble ourselves with the supernatural.

Margaret Fuller 163 quotes

there is such a rebound from parental influence that it generally seems that the child makes use of the directions given by the parent only to avoid the prescribed path.
