There is no beautifier of com...

There is no beautifier of complexion, or form, or behavior, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The sensual man conforms thou...

The sensual man conforms thoughts to things; the poet conforms things to his thoughts.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The betrothed and accepted lo...

The betrothed and accepted lover has lost the wildest charms of his maiden by her acceptance. She was heaven while he pursued her, but she cannot be heaven if she stoops to one such as he!

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There is a mortifying experie...

There is a mortifying experience in particular, which does not fail to wreak itself also in the general history; I mean "the foolish face of praise," the forced smile which we put on in company where we do not feel at ease, in answer to conversation which does not interest us. The muscles, not spontaneously moved but moved, by a low usurping wilfulness, grow tight about the outline of the face, with the most disagreeable sensation.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A man is known by the books h...

A man is known by the books he reads, by the company he keeps, by the praise he gives, by his dress, by his tastes, by his distastes, by the stories he tells, by his gait, by the notion of his eye, by the look of his house, of his chamber; for nothing on earth is solitary but every thing hath affinities infinite.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

It is much better to learn the elements of geology, of botany, or ornithology and astronomy by word of mouth from a companion than dully from a book.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Every body we know surrounds ...

Every body we know surrounds himself with a fine house, fine books, conservatory, gardens, equipage, and all manner of toys, as screens to interpose between himself and his guest. Does it not seem as if man was of a very sly, elusive nature, and dreaded nothing so much as a full rencontre front to front with his fellow?

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

And yet--it is not beauty tha...

And yet--it is not beauty that inspires the deepest passion. Beauty without grace is the hook without the bait. Beauty, without expression, tires.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Almost every man we meet requ...

Almost every man we meet requires some civility; requires to be humored; - he has some fame, some talent, some whim of religion or philanthropy in his head that is not to be questioned, and which spoils all conversation with him. But a friend is a sane man who exercises not my ingenuity, but me.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

From within or from behind, a...

From within or from behind, a light shines through us upon things, and makes us aware that we are nothing, but the light is all.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A beautiful woman is a practi...

A beautiful woman is a practical poet, taming her savage mate, planting tenderness, hope and eloquence in all whom she approaches.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The universe is represented i...

The universe is represented in every one of it's particles. Everything is made of one hidden stuff. The world globes itself in a drop of dew. The true doctrine of omnipresence is that God appears with all His parts in every moss and cobweb.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There is always a best way of doing everything, if it be to boil an egg. Manners are the happy ways of doing things.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The earth laughs in flowers. ...

The earth laughs in flowers.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful, for beauty is God's handwriting.

Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The reward of a thing well do...

The reward of a thing well done is having done it.

Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. All is riddle, and the key to a riddle is another riddle.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A man is what he thinks about...

A man is what he thinks about all day long.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The reason why the world lack...

The reason why the world lacks unity, and lies broken and in heaps, is, because man is disunited with himself.
