For what are they all in thei...

For what are they all in their high conceit, When man in the bush with God may meet?

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Public opinion, I am sorry to...

Public opinion, I am sorry to say, will bear a great deal of nonsense. There is scarcely any absurdity so gross, whether in religion, politics, science or manners, which it will not bear.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Eloquence is the power to tra...

Eloquence is the power to translate a truth into language perfectly intelligible to the person to whom you speak.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

All infractions of love and e...

All infractions of love and equity in our social relations are speedily punished-by fear...be honest with a man and you have no fear. Try to deceive and the relationship deteriorates.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Language is a city, to the bu...

Language is a city, to the building of which every human being brought a stone; yet he is no more to be credited with the grand result than the acaleph which adds a cell to the coral reef which is the basis of the continent.

Our best history is still poetry.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.[What is a sorrow? A feeling whose benefits have not yet been discovered]

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

We do not yet trust the unkno...

We do not yet trust the unknown powers of thought. Whence came all these tools, inventions, book laws, parties, kingdoms? Out of the invisible world, through a few brains. The arts and institutions of men are created out of thought. The powers that make the capitalist are metaphysical, the force of method and force of will makes trade, and builds towns.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Four snakes gliding up and do...

Four snakes gliding up and down a hollow for no purpose that I could see - not to eat, not for love, but only gliding.

If you act, you show character; if you sit still, you show it; if you sleep you show it.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Though love repine, and reaso...

Though love repine, and reason chafe, There came a voice without reply,- "'Tis man's perdition to be safe, When for the truth he ought to die."

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Our eyes are holden that we c...

Our eyes are holden that we cannot see things that stare us in the face, until the hour arrives when the mind is ripened; then we behold them, and the time when we saw them not is like a dream.

The brevity of human life gives a melancholy to the profession of the architect.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Do not be caught by the sensa...

Do not be caught by the sensational in nature, as a coarse red-faced sunset, a garrulous waterfall, or a fifteen thousand foot mountain... avoid prettiness - the word looks much like pettiness - and there is but little difference between them.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The unstable estimates of men...

The unstable estimates of men crowd to him whose mind is filled with a truth, as the heaped waves of the Atlantic follow the moon.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Consideration is the soil in ...

Consideration is the soil in which wisdom may be expected to grow, and strength be given to every up-springing plant of duty.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The world is a divine dream, ...

The world is a divine dream, from which we may presently awake to the glories and certainties of day.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

We want men and women who sha...

We want men and women who shall renovate life and our social state but we see that most natures are insolvent, cannot satisfy their own wants, have an ambition out of all proportion to their practical force, and so do lean and beg day and night continually.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Women have a less accurate me...

Women have a less accurate measure of time than men; there is a clock in Adam, none in Eve.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Thought is the seed of action...

Thought is the seed of action; but action is as much its second form as thought is its first. It rises in thought, to the end that it may be uttered and acted. Always in proportion to the depth of its sense does it knock importunately at the gates of the soul, to be spoken, to be done.
