Science always goes abreast with the just elevation of the man, keeping step with religion and metaphysics; or, the state of science is an index of our self-knowledge.

The great man, that is, the man most imbued with the spirit of the time, is the impressionable man.

Doing well is a result of doing good.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There is in nature a parallel...

There is in nature a parallel unity which corresponds to the unity in the mind and makes it available. This methodizing mind meets no resistance in its attempts. The scattered blocks, with which it strives to form a symmetrical structure, fit. This design following after finds with joy that like design went before. Not only man puts things in a row, but things belong in a row.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

No doubt, to a man of sense, ...

No doubt, to a man of sense, travel offers advantages. As many languages as he has, as many friends, as many arts and trades, so many times is he a man. A foreign country is a point of comparison, wherefrom to judge his own.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Savages cling to a local god ...

Savages cling to a local god of one tribe or town. The broad ethics of Jesus were quickly narrowed to village theologies, which preach an election or favoritism.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The hero is a mind of such ba...

The hero is a mind of such balance that no disturbances can shake his will, but pleasantly, and, as it were, merrily, he advancesto his own music, alike in frightful alarms and in the tipsy mirth of universal dissoluteness.

Do not shut up the young people against their will in a pew, and force the children to ask them questions for an hour against their will.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Great country, diminutive minds. America is formless, has no terrible and no beautiful condensation.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

I am primarily engaged to myself to be a public servant of all the gods, to demonstrate to all men that there is intelligence andgood will at the heart of all things, and even higher and yet higher leadings. These are my engagements; how can your law further or hinder me in what I shall do to men?

A few years ago, the liberal churches complained that the Calvinistic church denied to them the name of Christian. I think the complaint was confession; a religious church would not complain.

The reverence for the Scriptures is an element of civilization, for thus has the history of the world been preserved, and is preserved.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

In my dealing with my child, ...

In my dealing with my child, my Latin and Greek, my accomplishments and my money stead me nothing; but as much soul as I have avails. If I am wilful, he sets his will against mine, one for one, and leaves me, if I please, the degradation of beating him by my superiority of strength. But if I renounce my will, and act for the soul, setting that up as umpire between us two, out of his young eyes looks the same soul; he reveres and loves with me.

The cold, inconsiderate of pe...

The cold, inconsiderate of persons, tingles your blood, benumbs your feet, freezes a man like an apple.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

My life is superficial, takes...

My life is superficial, takes no root in the deep world; I ask, When shall I die, and be relieved of the responsibility of seeinga Universe which I do not use? I wish to exchange this flash-of-lightning faith for continuous daylight, this fever-glow for a benign climate.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

If you follow the suburban fa...

If you follow the suburban fashion in building a sumptuous- looking house for a little money, it will appear to all eyes as a cheap, dear house.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A man in the view of absolute...

A man in the view of absolute goodness, adores, with total humility. Every step downward, is a step upward. The man who renounceshimself, comes to himself.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

No performance is worth loss ...

No performance is worth loss of geniality. 'Tis a cruel price we pay for certain fancy goods called fine arts and philosophy.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The population of the world i...

The population of the world is a conditional population; these are not the best, but the best that could live in the existing state of soils, gases, animals, and morals: the best that could yet live; there shall be a better, please God.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The American who has been con...

The American who has been confined, in his own country, to the sight of buildings designed after foreign models, is surprised on entering York Minster or St. Peter's at Rome, by the feeling that these structures are imitations also,--faint copies of an invisible archetype.
