Not the sun or summer alone, ...

Not the sun or summer alone, but every hour and season yields its tribute of delight.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Overhead the sanctities of th...

Overhead the sanctities of the stars shine forever-more... pouring satire on the pompous business of the day which they close, and making the generations of men show slight and evanescent.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

O friend, my bosom said, Thro...

O friend, my bosom said, Through thee alone the sky is arched. Through thee the rose is red; All things through thee take nobler form, And look beyond the earth, The mill-round of our fate appears A sun-path in thy worth. Me too thy nobleness has taught To master my despair; The fountains of my hidden life Are through thy friendship fair.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Begin and proceed on a settle...

Begin and proceed on a settled conviction that but little is permitted to any man to do or to know, and if he complies with the first grand laws, he shall do well.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Tell them dear, that if eyes ...

Tell them dear, that if eyes were made for seeing, Then beauty is its own excuse for being: Why thou wert there, O rival of the rose! I never sought to ask, I never knew: But, in my simple ignorance suppose The selfsame power that brought me there brought you.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Happy the man who never puts ...

Happy the man who never puts on a face, but receives every visitor with that countenance he has on.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A man of good sense but of little faith, whose compassion seemed to lead him to church as often as he went there, said to me; 'that he liked to have concerts, and fairs, and churches, and other public amusements go on.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The Italians are fond of red ...

The Italians are fond of red clothes, peacock plumes, and embroidery; and I remember one rainy morning in the city of Palermo, the street was ablaze with scarlet umbrellas.

I DO not count the hours I spend In wandering by the sea; The forest is my loyal friend, Like God it useth me.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

For, rightly, every man is a channel through which heaven floweth, and, whilst I fancied I was criticising him, I was censuring orrather terminating my own soul.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Art, in the artist, is propor...

Art, in the artist, is proportion, or, a habitual respect to the whole by an eye loving beauty in details. And the wonder and charm of it is the sanity in insanity which it denotes.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Let us not be too much acquai...

Let us not be too much acquainted. I would have a man enter his house through a hall filled with heroic and sacred sculptures, that he might not want the hint of tranquillity and self-poise.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

My garden is a forest ledge Which older forest s bound; The banks slope down to the blue lake-edge, Then plunge to depths profound!

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Be sure then to read no mean books. Shun the spawn of the press on the gossip of the hour. Do not read what you shall learn, without asking, in the street and the train.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

I like the silent church before the service begins, better than any preaching. How far off, how cool, how chaste the persons look,begirt each one with a precinct or sanctuary!

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The superstition respecting p...

The superstition respecting power and office is going to the ground. The stream of human affairs flows its own way, and is very little affected by the activity of legislators. What great masses of men wish done, will be done; and they do not wish it for a freak, but because it is their state and natural end.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The Transcendentalist adopts ...

The Transcendentalist adopts the whole connection of spiritual doctrine. He believes in miracle, in the perpetual openness of thehuman mind to new influx of light and power; he believes in inspiration, and in ecstacy.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Very few of our race can be s...

Very few of our race can be said to be yet finished men. We still carry sticking to us some remains of the preceding inferior quadruped organization. We call these millions men; but they are not yet men. Half-engaged in the soil, pawing to get free, man needs all the music that can be brought to disengage him.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Beware of too much good stayi...

Beware of too much good staying in your hand. It will fast corrupt and worm worms. Pay it away quickly in some sort.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

An individual is an encloser. Time and space, liberty and necessity, truth and thought, are left at large no longer.
