When the eyes say one thing, a...

When the eyes say one thing, and the tongue another, a practiced man relies on the language of the first.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Say thank you! I want to hear ...

Say thank you! I want to hear you say it now. Out loud. 'Thank you.' You're saying thank you because your faith is so strong that you don't doubt that whatever the problem, you'll get through it. You're saying thank you because you know that even in the eye of the storm, God has put a rainbow in the clouds. You're saying thank you because you know there's no problem created that can compare to the Creator of all things. Say thank you!

The great majority of men are bundles of beginnings

The true test of civilization ...

The true test of civilization is not the census, nor the size of cities, nor the crops - no, but the kind of man the country turns out.

The force of character is cumulative.

America is another name for opportunity. Our whole history appears like a last effort of divine providence on behalf of the human race.

Every man passes his life in the search after friendship.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A friend, therefore, is a sort...

A friend, therefore, is a sort of paradox in nature. I who alone am, I who see nothing in nature whose existence I can affirm with equal evidence to my own, behold now the semblance of my being, in all its height, variety, and curiosity, reiterated in a foreign form; so that a friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

Delicious is a just and firm encounter of two in a thought, in a feeling.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

We take care of our health; we lay up money; we make our roof tight, and our clothing sufficient; but who provides wisely that he shall not be wanting in the best property of all, -friends?

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

But there is no end to the pra...

But there is no end to the praise of books, to the value of the library. Who shall estimate their influence on our population where all the millions read and write ? It is the joy of nations that man can communicate all his thoughts, discoveries and virtues to records that may last for centuries.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

In the right hands, literature...

In the right hands, literature is not resorted to as a consolation, and by the broken and decayed, but as a decalogue.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A collector recently bought at public auction, in London, for one hundred and fifty-seven guineas, an autograph of Shakespeare; but for nothing a school-boy can read Hamlet and can detect secrets of highest concernment yet unpublished therein.

Life is our dictionary....

Life is our dictionary.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There is then creative reading...

There is then creative reading as well as creative writing. When the mind is braced by labor and invention, the page of whatever book we read becomes luminous with manifold allusion. Every sentence is doubly significant, and the sense of our author is as broad as the world.

Discontent is want of self-reliance; it is infirmity of will.

Self-command is the main elegance.

In every man there is something wherein I may learn of him, and in that I am his pupil.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There never was a strong chara...

There never was a strong character that was not made strong by discipline of the will; there never was a strong people that did not rank subordination and discipline among the signal virtues. Subjection to moods is the mark of a deteriorating morality. There is no baser servitude than that of the man whose caprices are his masters, and a nation composed of such men could not long preserve its liberties.
