Fear, when your friends say t...

Fear, when your friends say to you what you have done well, and say it through; but when they stand with uncertain timid looks of respect and half-dislike, and must suspend their judgement for years to come, you may begin to hope.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The possibility of interpreta...

The possibility of interpretation lies in the identity of the observer with the observed. Each material thing has its celestial side; has its translation, through humanity, into the spiritual and necessary sphere, where it plays a part as indestructible as any other.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The simplicity of the univers...

The simplicity of the universe is very different from the simplicity of a machine. The simplicity of nature is not that which may be easily read but is inexhaustible. The last analysis can no wise be made.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The hard soil and four months...

The hard soil and four months of snow make the inhabitants of the northern temperate zone wiser and abler than his fellow who enjoys the fixed smile of the tropics.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Every mind has a new compass,...

Every mind has a new compass, a new direction of its own, differencing its genius and aim from every other mind.--We call this specialty the bias of each individual. And none of us will ever accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

What school, college, or lecture bring men depends on what men bring to carry it home in.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

My good hoe as it bites the ground revenges my wrongs, and I have less lust to bite my enemies. In the smoothing the rough hillocks, I smooth my temper.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

For it is not metres, but a m...

For it is not metres, but a metre-making argument that makes a poem, - a thought so passionate and alive that like the spirit of a plant or an animal it has an architecture of its own, and adorns nature with a new thing.

A day is a miniature eternity.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

If we suddenly plant our foot...

If we suddenly plant our foot, and say, - I will neither eat nor drink nor wear nor touch any food or fabric which I do not know to be innocent, or deal with any person whose whole manner of life is not clear and rational, we shall stand still. Whose is so? Not mine; not thine; not his. But I think we must clear ourselves each one by the interrogation, whether we have earned our bread to-day by the hearty contribution of our energies to the common benefit? and we must not cease to tend to the correction of these flagrant wrongs, by laying one stone aright every day.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There is a class of persons t...

There is a class of persons to whom by all spiritual affinity i am bought and sold; for them i will go to prison, if need be; but your miscellaneous popular charities; the education at college of fools; the building of meeting-houses to the vain end to which many now stand; alms to sots; and the thousandfold Relief Societies; - though i confess with shame i sometimes succumb and give the dollar, it is a wicked dollar which by and by i shall have the manhood to withhold.

Men are lenses through which we read our own minds.

Whence, then, this worship of the past? The centuries are conspirators against the sanity and authority of the soul.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The secret of drunkenness is,...

The secret of drunkenness is, that it insulates us in thought, whilst it unites us in feeling.

Manners are the happy ways of doing things.

I know and see too well, when not voluntarily blind, the speedy limits opersons called high and worthy.

If we shall take the good we find, asking no questions, we shall have heaping measures.

When the night is darkest, the stars come out.

The pest of society are the egotist, they are dull and bright, sacred and profane, course and fine. It is a disease that like the flu falls on all constitutions.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

I find nothing in fables more astonishing than my experience in every hour. One moment of a man's life is a fact so stupendous as to take the luster out of fiction.
