Out of sleeping a waking, Out...

Out of sleeping a waking, Out of waking a sleep.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Some of the sweetest hours in life, in retrospect will be found to have been spent with books.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The student is to read histor...

The student is to read history actively and not passively; to esteem his own life the text, and books the commentary. Thus compelled, the muse of history will utter oracles as never to those who do not respect themselves.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

In our fine arts, not imitati...

In our fine arts, not imitation, but creation is the aim... The details, the prose of nature, he should omit, and give us only the spirit and splendour.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Behold the Sea, The opaline, ...

Behold the Sea, The opaline, the plentiful and strong, Yet beautiful as is the rose in June, Fresh as the trickling rainbow of July; Sea full of food, the nourisher of kinds, Purger of earth, and medicine of men; Creating a sweet climate by my breath, Washing out harms and griefs from memory, And, in my mathematic ebb and flow, Giving a hint of that which changes not.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Every individual nature has i...

Every individual nature has its own beauty. One is struck in every company, at every fireside, with the riches of nature, when he hears so many new tones, all musical, sees in each person original manners, which have a proper and peculiar charm, and reads new expressions of face. He perceives that nature has laid for each the foundations of a divine building, if the soul will build thereon.

Tis the old secret of the gods that they come in low disguises.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

We must set up a strong present tense against all rumors of wrath, past and to come.

Our high respect for a well-read man is praise enough for literature. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

The poet, the painter, the sculptor, the musican, the architect, seek each to concentrate this radiance of the world on one point, and each in his several work to satisfy the love of beauty which stimulates him to produce.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

It is frivolous to fix pedant...

It is frivolous to fix pedantically the date of particular inventions. They have all been invented over and over fifty times. Man is the arch machine, of which all these shifts drawn from himself are toy models. He helps himself on each emergency by copying or duplicating his own structure, just so far as then need is.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

I do not see how a barbarous community and a civilized community can constitute a state. I think we must get rid of slavery or we must get rid of freedom.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

When we see a special reforme...

When we see a special reformer we feel like asking him, What right have you, sir, to your own virtue? Is virtue piecemeal?

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Genius is intellect constructive.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Time is indeed the theater and seat of illusions; nothing is so ductile and elastic. The mind stretches an hour to a century, and dwarfs an age to an hour.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The heroic soul does not sell...

The heroic soul does not sell its justice and its nobleness. It does not ask to dine nicely and to sleep warm. The essence of greatness is the perception that virtue is enough. Poverty is its ornament. It does not need plenty, and can very well abide its loss.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Had I but written as many ode...

Had I but written as many odes in praise of Muhammad and Ali as I have composed for King Mahmud, they would have showered a hundred blessings on me.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The difference between talent...

The difference between talent and genius is in the direction of the current: in genius, it is from within outward; in talent from without inward.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

God evidently does not intend...

God evidently does not intend us all to be rich, or powerful or great, but He does intend us all to be friends.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

I have no expectation that any man will read history aright who thinks that what was done in a remote age, by men whose names have resounded far, has any deeper sense than what he is doing today.
