Excite the soul, and the weath...

Excite the soul, and the weather and the town and your condition in the world all disappear; the world itself loses its solidity, nothing remains but the soul and the Divine Presence in which it lives.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The gates of thought, - how sl...

The gates of thought, - how slow and late they discover themselves! Yet when they appear, we see that they were always there, always open.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Not from a vain or shallow tho...

Not from a vain or shallow thought His awful Jove young Phidias brought.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

If the red slayer think he sla...

If the red slayer think he slays, Or if the slain think he is slain, They know not well the subtle ways, I keep and pass and turn again.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

We seldom see anybody who is n...

We seldom see anybody who is not uneasy or afraid to live.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Who shall forbid a wise skepti...

Who shall forbid a wise skepticism, seeing that there is no practical question on which anything more than an approximate solution can be had?

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Why should we be cowed by the name of Action?.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The German intellect wants the...

The German intellect wants the French sprightliness, the fine practical understanding of the English, and the American adventure; but it has a certain probity, which never rests in a superficial performance, but asks steadily, To what end? A German public asks for a controlling sincerity.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Let us, if we must have great actions, make our own so. All action is of infinite elasticity, and the least admits of being inflated with celestial air, until it eclipses the sun and moon.

I honor health as the first Muse.

The highest Beauty should be plain set.

All high beauty has a moral element in it.

Come, see the north-wind's masonry, Out of an unseen quarry evermore Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer Curves his white bastions with projected roof Round every windward stake, or tree, or door. Speeding, the myriad-handed, his wild work So fanciful, so savage, naught cares he For number or proportion.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

We are all inventors, each sai...

We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided each by a private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates, all opportunities.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Great believers are always rec...

Great believers are always reckoned infidels, impracticable, fantastic, atheistic, and really men of no account. The spiritualist finds himself driven to express his faith by a series of skepticisms.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The religion which is to guide...

The religion which is to guide and fulfill the present and coming ages, whatever else it be, must be intellectual. The scientific mind must have a faith which is science.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Great conversation ... require...

Great conversation ... requires an absolute running of two souls into one.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

It is commonly said by farmers, that a good pear or apple costs no more time or pains to rear, than a poor one; so I would have no work of art, no speech, or action, or thought, or friend, but the best.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Steam was till the other day the devil which we dreaded. Every pot made by any human potter or brazier had a hole in its cover, to let off the enemy, lest he should lift pot and roof and carry the house away.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A man should have a farm or a mechanical craft for his culture. We must have a basis for our higher accomplishments, our delicate entertainments of poetry and philosophy, in the work of our hands.
